If you believe in a god simply because "everyone else" does, proves only that you have the "herd mentality" of a lemming. It doesn't prove that your god exists. |

| Sam Harris - The End of Faith |
A man's faith is just a subset of his beliefs about the world: beliefs about matters of ultimate concern that we, as a culture, have told him he need not justify... |
|
| Vladimir Lenin |
Give me a child for the first 5 years of his life and he will be mine forever. |
|
Friedrich Nietzsche |
A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything. |
|
Bertrand Russell |
"It has been said that man is a rational animal. All my life I have been searching for evidence which could support this."
"Many people would sooner die than think; In fact, they do so."
"The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts."
"What the world needs is not dogma but an attitude of scientific inquiry combined with a belief that the torture of millions is not desirable, whether inflicted by Stalin or by a Deity imagined in the likeness of the believer."
"Not to be certain is, I think, one of the essential things in rationality."
"Man is a credulous animal, and must believe something; in the absence of good grounds for belief, he will be satisfied with bad ones." |

I travelled over land and sea, consulted the wisest from all religions. I meditated... fasted... took vows of silence and celibacy, punishing my body for all sin. And now I know in my heart the ultimate truth... religion is a load of bollocks. |

Esiah Zakite |
If everyone in the middle east suddenly became atheists... peace would break out. They'd all get together and have a good laugh (and many tears) admitting how stupidly they'd behaved over a bit of desert and a few ancient myths. |
|
|
Harry Armpit |
Religion is a sign of the deep-felt human yearning to find the ultimate meaning of life... unfortunately religion is also the finest example of our ability to believe just about anything, even if it's complete and utter bollocks. |

| Allah Verpint |
We are the only species intelligent enough to understand that death is inevitable, and the only species stupid enough to think that delusion is the best way of dealing with it! |

The Only Church That Illuminates Is A Burning Church |
|
| Baron von Knifty |
Until humans can shed their weakness for religion they have no right to call themselves civilized. Civilized people do not live lives based on superstitions and fairy tales, nor would they ever commit to war and kill people because of them.

If I say there is an invisible pink unicorn in my backyard, it is not the role of the doubter to prove that it does not exist. Rather, I should have to prove that my unicorn does exist. |

I'm an atheist because God equipped me with a brain. |
|
| Tiberius C. Costea |
Logic and reason reject the possibility of the existence of a "spiritual" world.As any educated person (especially in the matters of the brain functions) knows,that the conciousness mainly the self-awareness part of it, is produced by the brain. Self-awareness being described as the exact awareness of the existence of ones self; being aware of ones self at any chosen time of the subject, and being able to produce the awareness in an instant.Or by the decomposion of the brain after the demise of the physical body,any function of the brain dies along with it.Knowing this it would not be possible to be aware of ones self in a so called dimension that does not include any material aspect,(the brain in this particular case)because "The spiritual" as defined by the believers is some sort of dimension that is opossed to the physical world,and does not include the laws of physics nor the most basic natural laws such as space,time,matter,gravity.Even if it would be possible to achieve such futile nonsense, once on the otherside, the first human impulse is the self-positioning of ones self.The first question that rises inside ones head after wakeing up from a deep state of unconciousness is "Where Am I".Ofcourse such question would be nonsense in a world that contains no space; not to mention that an individual needs at least one milisecond to become aware and to ask himself that first positioning question.This would ofcourse require time.But According to the believers this feature is also missing from the "spiritual" world.So as you can see all this is logical and rational scientific thinking that no believer bothers to do for himself.One more proof that reason destroys blind and foolish faith. |

ISN'T IT ODD THAT GOD CAN ONLY DO THINGS WE HUMANS CAN DO OURSELVES WITHOUT PRAYING? THINGS LIKE GETTING JOBS, BECOMING RICH, AND CURING DISEASES WE CAN CURE OURSELVES LIKE FLU, TB, SMALLPOX, MALARIA, HOOKWORM ETC... BUT WHEN IT COMES TO THINGS WE HUMANS CAN'T STOP OR CURE LIKE TSUNAMIS & HURRICANES TAKING MILLIONS OF INNOCENT LIVES, DISEASES LIKE AIDS, DIABETES, ASTHMA, ETC .. GOD CAN'T INTERVENE AND STOP OR CURE THEM WHICH WILL BE GOOD EVIDENCE THAT HE EXISTS, BUT WE DON'T SEE THAT, INSTEAD WE CONTINUE TO LOSE OUR LOVED ONES. This seems to me that humans created this God in their image, character, and capabilities because humans are in love with themselves. |

Years ago in college, I took a blow off class "Understanding Fairy-Tale" as an elective during the summer when there weren't many courses available. I imagine that's pretty much the entire curriculum for a "theology student". |
