Belief in the supernatural, then, great as were its services
in the early stages of human development, can’t be considered
to be any longer required, either for enabling us to know
what is right and what is wrong in social morality, or for
providing us with motives to do right and to abstain from
wrong.
The usefulness of religion
There is a battle constantly going on between the powers of
good and those of evil. Even the humblest human creature
can take some part in this battle, and even the smallest
help to the right side has value in promoting the very
slow progress by which good is gradually gaining ground
from evil. That progress is often so slow as to be almost
undetectable; but when we compare the state of the battle
at two times that are far apart, the progress of good over
evil becomes visible to us, and that gives us a promise that
the good will win the final victory—quite certainly, though
not very soon.
The most animating and invigorating thought that can inspire a
human creature is the thought of doing something, on even the
humblest scale if nothing more is within reach, towards bringing
this final victory a little nearer. And I am perfectly sure that
it—·the religion of humanity·—is destined to be the religion of
the future, whether or not supernatural sanctions are brought
into it. But it appears to me that supernatural hopes, of the sort
that rational scepticism (as I have called it) is willing to endorse,
may still contribute quite a lot towards giving this religion the
ascendancy it ought to have over the human mind.

"The European Union is something ... 
very precious, not only for us in Europe, but also for the rest of the world. Because the European Union is, in fact, the result of a project for peace that brought together nations emerging from the ruins of the Second World War. It was the European Union that united them in peace around the values of respect for human dignity, freedom, democracy, justice, rule of law and respect for human rights."
