There is NO Freedom of Religion without Freedom from Religion. |

EA Miller |
The biggest fear for any religious organization is that their followers start questioning their beliefs. Because once basic critical thinking skills are actually used, they quickly realize they everything they have ever been taught is complete bullshit. |

The powerful Roman Emperor Constantine spread Christianity around the then known world, and he had executed his son and boiled his wife alive. That's who the Roman Catholic Church gets its strong moral compass from. |

What the atheist asks is the ability to describe things as the evidence suggests, and to respond in a rational fashion. Speculations about how things came to be -- no matter how interesting -- lack an evidentiary basis and are ultimately irrelevant to daily life. Speculations about how things should be -- the conduct of society -- these are the subjects of moral philosophy. Religion -- which claims both a human-like originator and a detailed knowledge of his moral conclusions -- is fantasy posing as fact -- and should be valued accordingly. (Observation #1868) |

disbelief crept over me at a very slow rate, but was at last complete. The rate was so slow that I felt no distress, and have never since doubted even for a single second that my conclusion was correct. I can indeed hardly see how anyone ought to wish Christianity to be true . . . • Charles Darwin, |

I'm glad to be a moral person because I want to. Not because of a threat of death or eternal damnation. Pity to those who need to be frightened into being good people. |

"In my view not only is science corrosive to religion, religion is corrosive to science. It teaches people to be satisfied with trivial super natural non explanations and blinds them to the wonderful real explanations that we have within our grasp. It teaches them to except authority, revelation, and faith instead of always insisting on evidence." |

Richard Dawkins |
Many of us saw religion as harmless nonsense. Beliefs might lack all supporting evidence but, we thought, if people needed a crutch for consolation, where's the harm? September 11th changed all that. Revealed faith is not harmless nonsense, it can be lethally dangerous nonsense. Dangerous because it gives people unshakeable confidence in their own righteousness. Dangerous because it gives them false courage to kill themselves, which automatically removes normal barriers to killing others. Dangerous because it teaches enmity to others labelled only by a difference of inherited tradition. And dangerous because we have all bought into a weird respect, which uniquely protects religion from normal criticism. Let's now stop being so damned respectful! |

Christianity:
The belief that some cosmic Jewish Zombie can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him that you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree.
Makes perfect sense. |

On “Joni Table Talkâ€, a Christian TV show, one of the guests on the show stated that she was on the beach praying for sand dollars and found 8 of them. Odd how praying to the same god doesn’t prevent children from dying in cancer wards or people from starving to death around the world. |

EA Miller |
Wonder how many people who were starving to death in third world countries "gave their lives to Jesus" when some bible-thumping missionary gave them a bowl of protein slop to eat? Yet another sad example of indoctrinating very vulnerable people.

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. |

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. |

Religion always finds a way to excuse the inexcusable.

When a preacher tries to explain god's motives behind a natural disaster, you can be certain he's trying to lend supernatural sanction to his own bigotry. |
|
|
Pat Simons |
Conservatism is by its very nature intolerant, stagnant and backward looking. This is doubly true when applied to religion. |
