If you blindly follow his word without asking any questions or demanding to understand the logic behind it, you are, my friend, going against all democratic beliefs of society. We have a word for rulers that do that, they are called dictators. |

| Bill Hicks |
Christianity has a built-in defense system: anything that questions a belief, no matter how logical the argument is, is the work of Satan by the very fact that it makes you question a belief. It's a very interesting defense mechanism and the only way to get by it -- and believe me, I was raised Southern Baptist -- is to take massive amounts of mushrooms, sit in a field, and just go, "Show me." |

"There are no atheists in foxholes" isn't true, but even so it is a good argument AGAINST religion. It shows how religion is only useful to sheild us from the reality of our situation... whether in a foxhole, lying in one's deathbed or standing by a loved one's grave. |

EA Miller |
The Bible is cool with slavery. It’s just a normal, acceptable part of life. None of the main characters in the Bible—God, Abraham, Moses, David, or even Jesus ever once condemn it. All claims of the “good book†being any kind of a moral guide are highly exaggerated!

Dr. Idel Dreimer |
Religious hypotheses are unverifiable by the living -- the only "evidence" is ancient personal assertion -- or mythic "facts" woefully lacking in credibility. But fantasy is its own protection: it is a unifying realm beyond the fractious quibbles of intellect. Religion provides a sense of certainty, assures moral superiority, and comforts believers with a sense of community through repeated shared rituals. We should never underestimate the power of stupidity that is reassuringly communal. (Observation #1861) |
