Susan Neiman: Carrots and sticks

‘If you view religion as necessary for ethics, you’ve reduced us to the ethical level of four-year-olds. “If you follow these commandments you’ll go to heaven, if you don’t you’ll burn in hell” is just a spectacular version of the carrots and sticks with which you raise your children.’

—Susan Neiman.
