It is this imbalance between rich and poor that gives rise to crime, violence, prejudice, and other negative attitudes.

I don't think God has a gender. I don't think God hates gays or Democrats, and I don't think you have to be Born Again to find your way to Heaven.

Most of all, it means not blowing it up. Especially not in God's name. — Ellen Hopkins
