That passage is from Richard Lewtonin's review of Carl Sagan's The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark, Billions and Billions of Demons.

The rest of the paragraph reads:

"The eminent Kant scholar Lewis Beck used to say that anyone who could believe in God could believe in anything. To appeal to an omnipotent deity is to allow that at any moment the regularities of nature may be ruptured, that miracles may happen. "

"The eminent Kant scholar Lewis Beck used to say that anyone who could believe in God could believe in anything. To appeal to an omnipotent deity is to allow that at any moment the regularities of nature may be ruptured, that miracles may happen. "

I assume Beck would reKant his statement seeing the refusal of many believers in these days to believe in macro-evolution.
