“Theology is now little more than a branch of human ignorance. Indeed, it is ignorance with wings.”
— Sam Harris
Simplified Meaning:
The quote says that theology, which is the study of God and religion, is seen now as just a part of what people don't know or understand. It suggests that theology is like ignorance that has been given wings to fly, meaning it spreads and continues without being based on real knowledge or facts.
