Haroutioun Bochnakian quote: "All humanity needs, is to be reminded that there has always existed a human consensus on all common human needs and desires (extremely long life in perfect health, abundance, well-being), and that now, transgressing the religious option, he has achieved the scientific option of working for all of them, and for much more.<br />His rationality, guided by both his ambition and inspiration, will do the rest.<br /><br />WHATEVER RELIGION PROMISES, SCIENCE WILL DELIVER."
