That famous Oppenheimer quote is from 1965, not 1945.

After the Trinity test he went on to work for the US government for some years on nuclear weapons, which goes against the usual "what have we done?" sentiment that quote is meant to convey.

It would be hard to be a scientist without being human

Funnily, that is probably the only religious text that is not religious.

I've read the Bhagavad Gita and it spends a significant amount of time talking about karma and reincarnation. Not sure how you could see it as non-religious unless you did to it what Thomas Jefferson did to the Bible.

There is a lot of non religious content in there.

The point of Gita's message is to NOT worry about karma and reincarnation.

And there's plenty of non-religious content in the Bible, but no one in their right mind would call it a non-religious text.

The local knee jerk reactionary downvoting is hilarious and expected given the faux intellectualism that is now rampant here. Since I can't edit my original comment, here you go.

There is a ton of wisdom in the Gita.
