anti Religious Cult

• In 1961 Crick resigned as a fellow of Churchill College, Cambridge, when it proposed to build a chapel. When [Winston Churchill] wrote to him, pointing out that "none need enter (the chapel) unless they wish", Dr Crick replied that on those grounds, the college should build a brothel (Prostitut Ion), and enclosed a cheque for 10 guineas.

• Dr Watson, 74, said religious explanations were "myths from the past". "Every time you understand something, religion becomes less likely," he said.

• how lame that Crick was succeeded at the [Human Genome Project] by Francis Collins
