Ivan Ratoyevsky In the Haitian earthquake a church collapsed killing all those inside. Where was god? seems praying didn't help much did it? And please don't insult my intelligence by saying god moves in mysterious ways.
Baron von Knifty Church graveyards always puzzle me. People praying over acres of human remains that dead people no longer occupy. That’s like loving eggs but praying, after breakfast, to the egg shells.


Pete Shaw I don't worry that people believe in God. I worry that they are the same people running the country.

Steve Tatner Talking snakes, burning bushes that speak, people that fly around with wings on their backs, strolling about on water,floating up to heaven? floating back down again, big boats that carry lots of livestock (in two's), large expanses of water that part bizarrely when approached, creating a universe in seven days, Do they really defend that stuff as true?

Unknown If God created me in his image, why aren't I invisible?
At Man I have no need of the religious fix in order to face reality as it is. Reality as it is, is far far more incredible than anything humans could even begin to invent. Humans just hate mystery because they cannot control it.

High School Student It's best to fully embrace what you have left of your life than to think of the afterlife. As a non-believer, I don't really care where I'll go after I die.
Bill Hicks You believe the world's 12 thousand years old? "That's right." Okay I got one word to ask you, a one word question, ready? "Uh huh." Dinosaurs. You know the world's 12 thousand years old and dinosaurs existed, they existed in that time, you'd think it would have been mentioned in the fucking Bible at some point. "And lo Jesus and the disciples walked to Nazareth. But the trail was blocked by a giant brontosaurus...with a splinter in his paw. And O the disciples did run a shriekin': 'What a big fucking lizard, Lord!' But Jesus was unafraid and he took the splinter from the brontosaurus's paw and the big lizard became his friend.
Jarrox I prefer to be free and happy than to be a slave and content.
Luis Bolanos 2009 If Their Really is A God, Then Why Do you Need Faith.
Unknown The scariest fact of it all is that even if we do find ROCK SOLID PROOF there is no god, theists will say: "Well god made it so, he wants to test us." Gotta hand it to him/them, whoever wrote the bible, has rather by accident or on purpose put a lot of stupid shit in it to confuse the average and stupid people!
Celsus Clearly the Christians have used ... myths ... in fabricating the story of Jesus' birth'…It is clear to me that the writings of the Christians are a lie and that your fables are not well-enough constructed to conceal this monstrous fiction.
Dave Barry If there really is a God who created the entire universe with all of its glories, and He decides to deliver a message to humanity, He will not use, as His messenger, a person on cable TV with a bad hairstyle.
St. Peter "God made some men gay, because He made them in His image. Therefore God is gay."
Celebrity Lil Celebrity Lil' Sista Why is christianity so widespread? Divine influence? No... it's simply because it happened to coincide with the rise of global imperialism and not long after by the printing press. Just our bad luck, eh?

andyc Let he who is without reason cast no stones at all.
Big Ray The bible was written by men (as in males, mortal males who liked to think because they have something swinging between their legs they were super cool). Now, I'm a guy, dont get me wrong, but its so bloody obvious that the bible is just a method of control. Not only of women, but of other men. AND, you can tell it was written by 2000 year old guys because, if it was written by God, the bible wouldnt miss out on things like other planets, stars, hell, dinosaurs even. The lack of accuracy in the bible is attributed to the ignorance of the men who wrote it, and the fact that in their hurry to write a good control scheme, they didnt care to make the backstory plausible
Baron von Knifty Look at a picture of the Elephant Man and then tell me you still believe in the beauty of Intelligent Design.

Richard Dawkins Richard Dawkins We are so staggeringly lucky to find ourselves in the spotlight. However brief our time in the sun, if we waste a second of it, or complain that it is dull and barren or (like a child) boring, couldn't this be seen as a callous insult to those unborn trillions who will never be offered life in the first place? [...] the knowledge that we have only one life should make it all the more precious.

The atheist view is correspondingly life-affirming and life-enhancing, while at the same time never been tainted with self-delusion, wishful thinking, or whinging self pity of those who feel life owes them something.
Karl Marx Religion is the opiate of the masses.
Voltaire Voltaire The first clergyman was the first rascal who met the first fool - Voltaire
Ricky Gervais "They [atheists] are not doing things to be rewarded in heaven; they're doing things because they're right, because they live by a moral code."
isus When the pope died, he arrived at heavens gate and pleased Petrus for entrance. Petrus looked up in his book, but couldn't find any entry with the name pope. So Petrus went to ask God, if he knows this guy, claiming to be the representant of God on earth. No bell rings in Gods mind and as Jesus walks by they ask him, if he knows the pope and if it's ok to let him in. Jesus has no idea as well and offers to check out that person. He comes back with a big grin on his face and says "You remember when I was down on earth 2000 years ago and founded this club of fishermans, you wont belive it, this club still exists".
unknown We know that EVERY word in the bible is true, because the bible tells us so.
Lisa Randall I think there's a virtue in being good in and of itself. I think that one can work with the world we have. So I probably don't believe in God. I think it's a problem that people are considered immoral if they're not religious. That's just not true. This might earn me some enemies, but in some ways they may be even more moral. If you do something for a religious reason, you do it because you'll be rewarded in an afterlife or in this world. That's not quite as good as something you do for purely generous reasons.
44th President Dem-To-Be-Named-Later United States He who says "The United States is a Christian nation founded upon Christian principles and beliefs" is woefully ignorant of history. The United States was founded by Deists, and the puritan settlers were but one immigrant group among many.

Pat Simons Pat Simons Those who would break down the barriers between church and state always imagine their own tribe in charge, and making the rules for everyone else. What they should be doing is imagining the tribe they dislike most having control over their lives. The second scenario, will definitely be someone's reality.
