opening quote:
It is an absurdity to believe that the Deity has human passions, and one of the lowest of human passions, a restless appetite for applause. It is an inconsistency to believe, that, since the Deity has this human passion, he has not others also: and, in particular, a disregard to the opinions of creatures so much inferior.
—David Hume, Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion
