"But science can only be created by those who are thoroughly imbued with the aspiration toward truth and understanding. This source of feeling, however, springs from the sphere of religion. To this there also belongs the faith in the possibility that the regulations valid for the world of existence are rational, that is, comprehensible to reason. I cannot conceive of a genuine scientist without that profound faith. The situation may be expressed by an image: science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind. Though I have asserted above that in truth a legitimate conflict between religion and science cannot exist, I must nevertheless qualify this assertion once again on an essential point, with reference to the actual content of historical religions. This qualification has to do with the concept of God. During the youthful period of mankind's spiritual evolution human fantasy created gods in man's own image, who, by the operations of their will were supposed to determine, or at any rate to influence, the phenomenal world. Man sought to alter the disposition of these gods in his own favor by means of magic and prayer. The idea of God in the religions taught at present is a sublimation of that old concept of the gods. Its anthropomorphic character is shown, for instance, by the fact that men appeal to the Divine Being in prayers and plead for the fulfillment of their wishes.

The webmaster must be as dumb as their writers.
"I just read your article about how internet predators can use the Nintendo DS to chat with children over the internet._ coverage&id=3905371 ...That article was satire, right? Do you have any idea how the Nintendo DS works?"

11 year old demographic? I think not. You've got some issues to do with whilst I go play Mario Kart DS, a game that is clearly made for EVERYONE.
A barbie game? That's for 11 year olds. Mario's for everyone. Deal with it or begone.
