Quotes from the book
- On charges that DeLay violated campaign finance laws: "I believe it was Adolf Hitler who first acknowledged that the big lie is more effective than the little lie, because the big lie is so audacious, such an astonishing immorality, that people have a hard time believing anyone would say it if it wasn't true. You know, the big lie — like the Holocaust never happened or dark-skinned people are less intelligent than light-skinned people. Well, by charging this big lie liberals have finally joined the ranks of scoundrels like Hitler."
gollark: This is of course silly, because:- there are many more possible gods than the rewards-you-for-belief-in-your-specific-thing- it is possible that a god will punish you for "insincere" wager-driven belief
gollark: Basically, it's the idea that, since there's a chance of god existing, and if they do you'll get infinite happiness if you do believe or infinite suffering if you don't, but if they don't exist you'll not lose much by believing anyway.
gollark: I can provide a brief summary I guess.
gollark: Religion informs people's actions. *It is relevant*.
gollark: Also, opportunity cost.
