He makes some good points. People who insist that "awe" is not possible
without religion often refuse to look at or attempt to comprehend the

"It is fashionable to wax apocalyptic about the
threat to humanity posed by the AIDS virus, 'mad cow'
disease, and many others, but I think a case can be
made that faith is one of the world's great evils,
comparable to the smallpox virus but harder to
eradicate." -- Richard Dawkins

Carl Sagan was an expert at getting "AWE" across to the great
unwashed.
