But all that doesn’t define you, your reaction to it does. Your environment doesn’t make you who you are, your choices — your beliefs, do. "
7 " The only valid faith today is disbelief. "
8 " The most purely free decision one can make—and thus, the highest order of spirit on Earth—is believing in something without evidential knowledge. "

It's illegal to kill someone, unless you're the government. Private organizations can do everything that government can do except for legally break the law. "
