Sagan also commented on Christianity and the [[Jefferson Bible]], stating "My long-time view about Christianity is that it represents an amalgam of two seemingly immiscible parts, the religion of Jesus and the religion of [[Paul the Apostle|Paul]]. [[Thomas Jefferson]] attempted to excise the Pauline parts of the New Testament. There wasn't much left when he was done, but it was an inspiring document."<ref>{{cite book |last=Schei |first=Kenneth A. |title=An Atheist for Jesus |year=1996 |publisher=Synthesis |isbn=978-0-926491-01-4}}</ref>

outside the realm of science. On occasion, I will feel free to use the word. Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality. When we recognize our place in an immensity of light-years and in the passage of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that soaring feeling, that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely spiritual.<ref>Sagan, Carl; Druyan, Ann (1997).
