![Sneezing absorbs all the functions of the soul just as much as the [sexual] act, but we do not draw from it the same conclusions against the greatness of man, because it is involuntary; although we bring it about, we do so involuntarily. It is not for the sake of the thing in itself but for another end, and is therefore not a sign of man's weakness, or his subjection to this act.](/assets/img/quote-photos/sneezing-absorbs-all-the-functions-of-the-soul-just-as-much-as-the-sexual-act.jpg)

All of these things that have become second nature to our morals today owe very little to religion, and mostly have been won in opposition to the teeth of religion.
