Summary

This quote highlights the fundamental difference between religion and science. Religion is described as a culture of faith because it revolves around belief in a higher power or supernatural forces without requiring empirical proof. It focuses on trust and divine revelation. On the other hand, science is considered a culture of doubt because it engages in skepticism and demands evidence-based explanations. Scientists question, investigate, and seek to disprove theories, constantly driven by curiosity and the pursuit of knowledge grounded in facts and observable phenomena.

If we stay with animal analogies for a moment, owners of dogs will have noticed that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they will think you are god. Whereas owners of cats are compelled to realize that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they draw the conclusion that they are god. (Cats may sometimes share the cold entrails of a kill with you, but this is just what a god might do if he was in a good mood.)

Any perception can connect us to reality properly and fully. What we see doesn't have to be pretty, particularly; we can appreciate anything that exists. There is some principle of magic in everything, some living quality. Something living, something real, is taking place in everything.
