author atheist quote
Ben Pobjie Catholics (and most Christians) are people who believe that the entire universe was created just for us by a loving and benevolent and all-knowing God who came to earth in human form in order to sacrifice himself to himself to avoid his problem of having to send all of the humans he made to hell for the sins he knew in advance they were going to commit.
Jeremiah Pope Will a statement of " I don't believe in god and here's why.." overpower a thousand acts of kindness? Will I burn in hell for that statement?
Unknown The only soveriegn I can allow to rule me is reason. The first law of reason is this: What exists, exists. What is, is. From this irreducible bedrock principle, all knowledge is built. This is the foundation from which life is embraced. Reason is a choice. Wishes and whims are not facts, nor are they means of discovering them. Reason is our only way of grasping reality-it's our basic tool of survival. We are free to evade the effort of thinking, to reject reason, but we are not free to avoid the penalties.
Clint Murphy I live in the South East United States and ignorance and arrogance has ran rampant. Religion is the root of the disease.
your mom Don't pray in my school, and I won't think in your church

Bertrand Russel If I were to suggest that between the Earth and Mars there is a china teapot revolving about the sun in an elliptical orbit, nobody would be able to disprove my assertion provided I were careful to add that the teapot is too small to be revealed even by our most powerful telescopes. But if I were to go on to say that, since my assertion cannot be disproved, it is an intolerable presumption on the part of human reason to doubt it, I should rightly be thought to be talking nonsense.
The Church Of Reason it is ironic, how the only man without sin, would create the biggest sin of all...

Me We went into Iraq because we had reports by the CIA (and others) claiming they had possession of WMDs. The Crusaders went into the "Holy Lands" because they read a book written by a carpenter, a fisherman, and a few goat-herders. At least one made sense.

Dee Jay Dee Jay those who are religious tailor make their own truth
Alessandro Ferro I went past a church this morning and a poster said "There's nothing like caring." Do they think we need the motivation of god to actually do good things?

The Biblical account of Creation is all a bit vague. How long ago did all this "creation" take place? 5,000 years? 50,000? 500,000? 5,000,000? 50,000,000? 500,000,000? 5,000,000,000? 15,000,000,000?

Whereas science can give some order to the birth of the Universe and evolution, creationist's cannot. According to the scriptures it was all done and dusted within a week. Challenged on this the pious will come back with:

"Aaaah, yes, but a week could be any length of time for God." D'oh!

I've heard of a week being a long time in politics but fourteen billion years to create the universe et al being described as one week?! Get away, god lovers!
T.Z. Butler There is only one perfect synonym for the word manipulate . . . minister.
Unknown This world will not be destroyed by the vitriol and bloodlust of fundamentalist zealots who claim to be sanctified by thier deity, but by the mild mannered who pray for devine intervention to keep their weaknesses and greed in check.

NoGods4Me What I can't stand about fundigelicals is that they believe they have the right to force their religion on those around them. Even the slightest objection to their proselytizing is met with hostility on their part. That, to me, is the height of arrogance.
The Church Of Reason God gave the people their life, the trees their leaves and the water its purity.

The temples and churches et al are often built of sedimentary rock of ages. Ages pre-dating any foretold god's creation date by many eons. Close examination of the stone will reveal the skeletons of creatures that died those eons ago, holding up the edifices that in turn hold up the lies.
Quote from facebook page The true followers of religion must ride the donkey with the sword, not vehicles with bombs.
