"Religious monotheism is therefore not an ‘enemy’ of truth, but a possible ally. It should be noted that this possible alliance cannot be based (as many argue) on populist, pauperistic and miserabilistic reasons. The so-called ‘preferential option for the poor’, which some consider to be the common ground between atheist and religious revolutionaries, is nothing more than a secondary consequence of something that lies behind it and is primary, namely the admission of the existence of truth."
