The problem I want to talk to you about tonight is the problem of belief. What does it mean to believe? We use this word all the time, and I think behind it lurk some really extraordinary taboos and confusions.

We are all tricked. We think that religion tells us what to believe; but it doesn't, it is telling us what not to believe.
