“By contrast to the favorite intellectual definition of man as homo sapiens, or rational animal, the prophets understand man as homo religiosus, religious animal. On this definition it is meaningless to distinguish between religious and nonreligious areas of life or between religious and irreligious men. He who rejects one religion (or god) can only do so in the name of another.”
