Existence of god Quote by Michael Savage
““But for all his admiration of the student’s intelligence and ability to internalize Russell’s arguments, he is dismayed by the young man’s willingness to accept those arguments without question. This is a great insight into the revolutionary ethos, especially insofar as it is found in the minds of the young. The college campus rebel bravely questions the existence of God or long-standing societal customs but never thinks to question that which he seeks to replace them with.””
