"With every tool man is perfecting his own organs, whether motor or sensory, or is removing the limits to their functioning...Man has, as it were, become a kind of prosthetic God. When he puts on his auxiliary organs he is truly magnificent; but these organs have not grown on to him and they still give him much trouble at times." --Sigmund Freud, Civilization and its Discontents

All books supporting religion are alike. All books attacking it do so in their own way (well, maybe not, but doesn’t this start us off on a nice Tolstoyan note?). In any event, religion’s interface with science - long fraught - seems especially so these days, with a bevy of books criticizing religion as well as defending it.
