It can not be conducive for good mental health to have an All-Powerful "Judge of Right and Wrong" watching your every move and reading your every thought ready to cast you into hell for eternity for the slightest infraction. |

Religion has dumbed down human beings to a level that I seriously doubt they can recover from. |

WTF Bible verses... A nagging wife is like dripping on a rainy day. Keeping her from complaining is like trying to stop the wind or like trying to grasp oil with the right hand. proverbs 27:15-16 |

The Bible offers nothing that resembles democracy. Quite the contrary, obeying, serving, and rules for owning slaves are clearly stated instead. |

When proponents of a so-called “holy book” claim that it is the ultimate source of love and wisdom, why do they spend a significant amount of their time attacking diversity and science?

Science is a rigorous systematic endeavor that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the world. In theology there is only an opinion. Bertrand Russell. |

About the gods I have no means of knowing either that they exist or that do not exist or what they are to look like. Many things prevent my knowing. Amongst others, the fact that they have never been seen. Protagoras . |

Easter, when adults pass out chocolate crosses (representing an ancient Roman torture device) to children as fun, holiday treats. I guess mixing them in with chocolate eggs, bunnies, and jelly beans makes everything just peachy! |

Whenever someone claims to “feel the presence of Jesus” just remember two things: They have an agenda and they’re full of shit. |

If you ever desire to take the "intellect" out of an intellectual conversation, just add religion. It's as simple as that! |
|
|
Idel Dreimer |
There is a unanimity among religions: "God" made us too stupid to observe, reflect, and reach our own conclusions. In despair, we must subsume our intellects in "faith" and do what we are told. "Cui bono?" suggests the truth: religions have been the foundation stones of tribal loyalty-- the cautionary obelisks ensuring mindless groupthink and obsequious obedience -- not to God -- but to the temporal Caesars, the wielders of practical power. (Observation #2073)

Beware of Pope's with inviting smiles and the appearance of a congenial personality. If he wasn't the same kind of monster Pope's have always been, he would have never been chosen. |

| Baron von Knifty |
Raze those useless churches, mosques and temples and use the materials to build shelters, beds and dining halls for the needy. God dammit, practice what you preach!
|
|
| St. Augustine |
Often a non-Christian knows something about the earth, the heavens, and the other parts of the world, about the motions and orbits of the stars and even their sizes and distances, ...and this knowledge he holds with certainty from reason and experience. It is thus offensive and disgraceful for an unbeliever to hear a Christian talk nonsense about such things, claiming that what he is saying is based in Scripture. We should do all that we can to avoid such an embarrassing situation, which people see as ignorance in the Christian and laugh to scorn. |

Richard Dawkins |
By disclaiming the idea of a next life, we can take more excitement in this one! |

Nothing exemplifies brainwashing better than a person saying that they “put god first” in their life. This is a complete disconnect from reality. |

"A long habit of not thinking religions wrong, gives it a superficial appearance of being right" Thomas Paine. |

In the history of humankind, imaginary invisible gods have never solved a single problem. However, imbeciles that believe in them have created seemingly endless problems. |

Whenever I think of people living in absolute poverty and hear that "God will provide" BS, the stupidity of the indoctrinated and the damage it does to others all around the word sickens me.

“Freedom of religion” is an entirely defensible concept. You can’t stop people from believing in unicorns, centaurs, God, or the tooth fairy. On the other hand, the desire of government employees to wear religious symbols on the job should carry no greater weight than their desire to proclaim other private enthusiasms – for a political party, a sports team, or a brand of soap.
Indeed, given the fact that every religion claims a unique moral superiority – leading to the historically deadly intensity of religious disputes -- no secular government should appear to favour private superstition over public reason, or to betray the simple prudence of common sense. (Observation #2072) |

Telling children that their god requires them to label those who have different lifestyles or beliefs than them as "sinners" creates horribly bigoted adults. |

Behind every dictator, there is always a religion lurking close by. Sticking their crosses where they don't belong. |

Religion is a drug, and those priests etc., are the dealers. Think about it. |

"The fear of the Lord prolongs life. Fearing God is an awesome thing."

Personally, I have no fear of fictional characters! |

If fewer children are indoctrinated into a religion and allowed to think and choose their own path, there would be far less religious people. This is why theists start brainwashing their children at the earliest possible age. |
|
Sam Harris |
The core of science is not controlled experience or mathematical modelling; it is intellectual honesty. It is time we acknowledged a basic feature of human discourse: when considering the truth of a proposition, one is either engaged in an honest appraisal of the evidence and logical arguments, or one isn't. Religion is the one area of our lives where people imagine that some other standard of intellectual integrity applies. |

Godfrey Zoan |
Religion applauds delusion and renames it 'faith'. |

Ramakrishna CM |
God and religion are neither necessary nor sufficient for man to be good. |

Dope fancis has told a group of priests in Rome that " gossip is woman's business" and urged them to speak frankly, without going behind people's backs, "because we wear the trousers". This of course was said whilst he was wearing a dress whilst addressing men who were also wearing dresses. Honestly you couldn't make this shit up. |

The bible is "Essentially patriarchal and propaganda and one of the worst books ever". It begins with a story of adam and eve in which eve is created from adam's rib and people believe it, because they're stupid enough. The bible and belief in god, " Holds us back" Brian Cox (actor) |

How clerics try and blame their victims for being raped. The child instigated it. The rapes were historic. I didn't rape the child it was consensual sex. The last but not least "THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT". |

Since priests and pastors generally do not possess advanced degrees or any clinical training in the social sciences whatsoever, they should never be masquerading as social workers or psychologists. Yet they often do just that. Religion is poison. |

A single decent human being is far better than any of the thousands of gods ever concocted by mankind.

And on the eighth day, God sat back to watch the unfolding. And he saw the lion crush the gazelle, the python swallow the child, the parasitoid larva relentlessly consuming its host, the spider enjoying her cannibalistic meal. He saw the Black Death, and the mortal consequences of viral success. And reflecting on the marvels he had wrought, God smiled, for he knew that they must be good. (Observation #2105) |

Odd how the Christians' "goat herder's guide to the galaxy" with an almighty, all-knowing god at the helm has no clue about any branch of science (e.g., physical, chemical, biological, geological, astrological, etc.). |

On July 4, 2022, millions of Americans will be celebrating their “freedom” on Independence Day, except of course for girls and women, gay people, Native Americans, those who enjoy clean air, those that are not okay with banning books, people who prefer science over propaganda, and those that are terrified of the oncoming Christian theocracy. |

WTF Bible verse... Don't think I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace. I came to bring a sword. matthew. 10:34 |

The mere fact there is a field referred to as apologetics should be a far bigger problem for theists than it is. What kind of God needs mortals to make a case for its existence? Apologetics is, in itself, a compelling case for atheism.

Only use the statements "I'll pray for you" or "I'll put you on our prayer list" when you absolutely plan on doing NOTHING for the person or persons in need. |

White evangelicals are up in arms about public educators "grooming" today's children in ways they don't appreciate. Yet, ironically, they are the "groomers" ramming dangerous religious doctrine into the minds of children before their brains are even fully developed. |

The population of most countries want to see assisted dying for people close to death, so they will not suffer in pain. Who is opposed to this? Religious leaders, they remember their predecessors raping, torturing men, women, and children and then burned at the stake for being witches. or accusing them of heresy and drowning them. Hanging people for blasphemy. Yes, they still want people to suffer before death... |

Just remember that this holiday season Christians will be going out of their way to promote charities that serve impoverished populations. While on the surface providing food or perhaps helping dig wells to provide fresh water to these populations are good things, the real goal of these "good Christians" is to indoctrinate vulnerable people into their bigoted way of thinking. That's why I only give to charities that have no religious affiliation. |
