Human soul and religion are just the product of evolution

Quotable Quote by Sir Julian Huxley

Sir Julian Huxley was the brother of anti-Christian novellist Aldous Huxley and a grandson of Thomas Henry (T.H.) Huxley, better known as ‘Darwin’s Bulldog’. Julian was a leading evolutionary biologist, the first Director-General of UNESCO and signatory to the Humanist Manifesto II. He made it clear what he and other leading evolutionists really thought about:

‘In the evolutionary pattern of thought there is no longer either need or room for the supernatural. The earth was not created: it evolved. So did all the animals and plants that inhabit it, including our human selves, mind and soul as well as brain and body. So did religion.’
