"Although I'm not Christian, I was raised Christian. I'm an atheist, with a
slight Buddhist leaning. I've got a very strong sense of morality -- it's
just a different morality than the loud voices of the Christian
morality...I can't tell you how many films I've turned down because there
was an absence of morality. And I don't mean that from any sort of Judeo-
Christian/Muslim point of view. I'm not saying they're wrong and can't be
made. But, fundamentally, I'm such a humanist that I can't bear to make
films that make us feel humanity is more dark than it is light."

As a set of cognitive beliefs, religion is a speculative hypothesis of an
extremely low order of probability.
