“Science faces in ethics and religion its most interesting and possibly humbling challenge.... Science for its part will test relentlessly every assumption about the human condition and in time uncover the bedrock of the moral and religious sentiments.”

— E. O. Wilson, Consilience: The Unity of Knowledge

“It is high time that we subject religion as a global phenomenon to the most intensive multidisciplinary research we can muster. Why? Because religion is too important for us to remain ignorant about.”

— Daniel C. Dennett, Breaking the Spell: Religion as a Natural Phenomenon
