Huston Smith Quotes
Historically, religion has given people another world to live in, a world more adaptive to the human spirit. As a student of world religions, I see religion as the winnower of the wisdom of the human race. Of course, not everything about these religions is wise.

But in their view of the nature of reality, there is nothing in either modernity or postmodernity that rivals them.
