Alan Harvey |
So, according to the religious, you can only be good if you're scared of the consequences of being bad? Strange, I thought people were good because they care about each other? |

| Armand Salacrou |
The existence of a world without God seems to me less absurd than the presence of a God, existing in all his perfection, creating an imperfect man in order to make him run the risk of Hell |

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 is filled with God’s wisdom.” -all pastors, priests, and rabbis
Really? There’s no mention of DNA, atomic structure, or even the science behind making food and water safer to eat and drink. But ah it does give the cause of disease (demons) and warns how imposing iron chariots can be!

Religions would virtually vanish from the face of the Earth if children were allowed to think and discover things on their own, rather than be indoctrinated with superstition and anti-science beliefs taught as "truth" during the time that their young brains are still developing. |

Authoritarian government and conservative Christianity......the original same-sex marriage. |

In the Bible, Jesus says, "I and the father are one." In doing so, he is automatically responsible for all of the atrocities committed by God in the Old Testament. |

If you're a religious whack-job who believes that the "laying of hands" on people cures them of illness, please stay the fuck out of my hospital. |

Contrary to what Christian leaders claim, there is no such thing as having "spiritual authority" over anything. It's no coincidence that televangelists use their "spiritual authority" to clean out their followers' bank accounts. |

Right now, shameless, hypocritical mega-church pastors are in hiding at home waiting for science to save them from the coronavirus while at the same time showing reruns of sermons on TV and asking for donations from their ridiculously gullible flocks. |

Why is it that self-proclaimed "pro-lifers" only seem to care about fetuses and forced birth? Their "pro-life" agenda somehow ignores real pro-life issues such as gun control, universal healthcare, a livable wage for all, senseless wars, spousal abuse, incompetent leaders who endanger entire populations, and kids living in damn cages! |

Religion and morality do not automatically exclude each other, but they are very far from being the same thing. |

I love the Pope, I love seeing him in his Pope-Mobile, his three feet of bullet proof plexi-glass. That's faith in action folks! You know he's got God on his side. |

Calliope Muse |
After reading the bible, I have come to the conclusion that the god in their stories is an evil, sadistic, megalomaniacal monster. Why do theists insist upon worshiping such a creature, much less wanting to believe that it exists? |
|
| Anne Lamott |
You can safely assume that you've created God in your own image when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do. |

Alan Harvey |
I told my children never to touch the fruit bowl. They were naughty and touched it though, so I threw them out in the middle of winter and cursed them to suffer horribly for the rest of their lives, and for all subsequent generations to suffer also. I forgave them by sending my newest child to them to be tortured and murdered. Am I a bit sick? |

| Baron von Knifty |
The only one more pathetic than a person on their knees praying for salvation is the other person telling them it's all true.

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

A PhD in theology is essentially a degree in advanced fairy-tale. The word "doctor"(Dr.)should never be placed in front of people's names that possess such degrees because they exploit it convincing millions of gullible followers world-wide that they are actually bearers of some great wisdom. |

Religious scientists( bless them )have discovered what christ did when he was overwhelmed by his followers. They said he would go for long walks on the sea of galilee. |

“Theology is philosophy’s idiot cousin.” -David Paul |

The Bible's need to serve up virgin daughters like property, stone gay men to death, and have well-defined rules for slavery doesn't bode well for equality among the masses or for an individual’s rights within a society. |

If your religion determines your relationships, you are missing out on some exceptional human beings. My hope is that 2022 draws you away from a toxic belief systems and closer to actual humanity. |

Is the Bible racist? "...the curse or mark of Cain for killing his brother was a darkening of his descendants' skin. Historically, many congregations in the U.S. pointed to this story of Cain as evidence that Black skin was created as a punishment." -Michael P. |

Odd how billions of people around the world have prayed to a multitude of different "all-powerful" deities to stop the Coronavirus with absolutely no results. It's almost as if they're all make-believe! |

Why do the terminally religious always assume they're entitled to a say in other people's personal decision making? |

The people who would force religion into the public schools tend to become conspicuously less enthusiastic if the religion is going to be anything but their own. |

Many Christians believe that a stick (staff) Moses held was turned into a snake by god, yet completely deny that climate change is a real thing. We live in times when the sanity of religious folks seriously needs to be questioned. |

Theists have given up on evidence based science in favor of mythical fantasy and the world is a train wreck because of it. Common sense and reality have been completely thrown out the window in their bizzaro world. |
|

EA Miller |
The bible myth is deeply ingrained in Christians' minds. As a result, all rational thought is lost. Not being able to refer to their imaginary friend to answer any question is unthinkable. Yet deep inside they know the truth. Otherwise funerals would be 'Going to Heaven' celebrations instead of such somber occasions. |

Religion:
When all rational, critical thinking is rejected and replaced with "God did it!"

Maybe there is no Heaven. Or maybe this is all pure gibberish a product of the demented imagination of a lazy drunken hillbilly with a heart full of hate who has found a way to live out where the real winds blow, to sleep late, have fun, get wild, drink whisky, and drive fast on empty streets with nothing in mind except falling in love and not getting arrested . . . Res ipsa loquitur. Let the good times roll.
Hunter S. Thompson, Generation of Swine: Tales of Shame and Degradation in the '80's

As the creators of reality at the frontiers of human knowledge, Science and the occult have become one. Religion can either become irrelevant by continuing to distance itself from Science and magic, as it always has done, or face the truth and pay homage to the one true God, the God of Science. - Ralph Metusi |

Dr. Idel Dreimer |
The conventional, hopeful construction of "God" requires a clinical re-assessment. It is claimed he created this world of ruthless predation -- where most life forms must survive by eating others. He then appears to the top predator, and -- in return for reverence, obsequious praise, and undying devotion -- offers a compensatory escape -- paradisal and eternal -- from the unsavoury cauldron. No -- not just yet -- only when you are -- conveniently -- dead. The gullible murmur "saviour." The narrative says "psychopath." (Observation #1996) |

One of the primary objectives of religion in the modern world seems to be conditioning people to accept the idea nothing comes ahead of corporate profit. |

Religion is child abuse. It denies children the chance to rationally examine the world around them and places them on the path to narrow-minded bigotry. |

On a planet with limited resources, why would an all-knowing god command his people to be fruitful and multiply? Recommending smaller families and contraception seems much more rational. |

This Thanksgiving I am grateful to all of the scientists, past and present, who were responsible for all of the potentially life-saving vaccines that are available to us today. *Note, no gods were involved in the creation of these vaccines, just tons of empirical data and testing for validity. |

Religions are called faiths collectively because they believe something in absence of evidence - That's what it is! That's why it's called faith, otherwise, we'd call all religions evidence. But we don't for exactly that reason. Niel DeGrasse Tyson. |

If kids got raped by clowns as often as kids get raped by preachers, it would be against the law to take children to the circus. Dan Savage. |
