The more I question the origin and meaning of our existence, the less I care.
And the less I care, the more I question myself.

Jack Kolber

-

God is playing a comic to an audience that's afraid to laugh.

Voltaire

-

Religions are all alike -- founded on fables and mythologies.

Thomas Jefferson

-

He sewed his eyes shut because he is afraid to see
He tries to tell me what I put inside of me
He's got the answers to easy my curiosity
He dreamed a god up and called it christianity
Your god is dead and no one cares
If there is a hell
I will see you there

Nine Inch Nails, "Heresy"

-

Religion is excellent stuff for keeping common people quiet.

Napoleon

-

The truths of religion are never so well understood as by those
who have lost the power of resoning.

Voltaire

-

The more I study religions the more I am convinced that
man never worshipped anything but himself.

Istvan

-

I believe there is something out there watching over us. Unfortunately, it's the government.

Woody Allen

-

What does it say about God if he goes to the trouble of creating an existence only to shower it with misery unless they worship him?

-

If God is the answer, it must have been a very stupid question.

alt.atheism

-

I won't believe in Heaven and Hell,
No saints, no sinners, no devil as well.
No pearly gates, no thorny crown,
You're always letting us humans down.
The wars you bring, the babes you drown,
Those lost at sea and never found.
And it's the same the whole world round.
The hurt I see helps to compound,
that the Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
Is just somebody's unholy hoax,
And if you're up there you'll perceive,
That my heart's here upon my sleeve.
If there's one thing I don't believe in...

It's you, Dear God.

The Band XTC

-

History does not record anywhere at any time a religion that has any rational basis.
Religion is a crutch for people not strong enough to stand up to the unknown without help.
But, like dandruff, most people do have a religion and spend time and money on it and seem to derive considerable pleasure from fiddling with it.

Lazarus Long, "Time Enough For Love" by Robert Heinlein

-

Faith is a blind man reaching forward, expecting to shake someone's hand.

Greg Jensen

Christians and their God are not interested in finding truth, or having anything to do with it.
Why else was man told by God not to partake of the fruit of the tree of knowledge? Knowledge and truth are the destroyers of belief and dogma.

-


If God didn't exist, it would be neccesary to invent him.

Voltaire

-

Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by rulers as useful.

Seneca the Younger

Gods are fragile things; they may be killed by a whiff of science or a dose of common sense.

Chapman Cohen

Don't pray in my school and I won't think in your church.

Bumper Sticker

-

There will never be world peace as long as religion exists.

-

"It's hard to be religious when certain people don't get incinerated by lighting bolts"

Calvin & Hobbes

-

I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do.
When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.

Stephen Roberts.

-

For God so loved the world that he drowned everyone in it.

Athwart Babbit

-

If you talk to God you are praying. If God talks to you, you're schizo.

-

If a man suddenly appears before me with a big beard and locks and the works,
and performed this huge fucking miracle and said to me "I am God," I'd say,
"Fuck man, I didn't believe in ya but ok, you got me." But until that day he can fuck right off.

Liam Gallagher, Oasis

-

It all began when man made God in his image...

Dennis Voges

-

Take what you will from each and every religion, but take it and make it your own.
The only true religion is a free and independent one, independent in thought, independent in heart.
Independence is not achieved through conformity.

Ryan W. Kimball

-

When did I realize I was God? Well, I was praying and I suddenly realized I was talking to myself.

Peter O'Toole, The Ruling Class

Christians are quick to scoff at the absurdity of other religions when most fail to realize they worship a book that contains talking bushes and donkeys.

The fact is that far more crime and child abuse has been committed in the name of God, Jesus, and Mohammed
than has ever been committed in the name of Satan. Many people don't like that statement, but few can argue with it.

Kenneth V. Lanning

-

Is man one of God's blunders? Or is God one of man's blunders?

Friedrich Nietzsche

-

Religion is a superstition that originated in man`s mental inability to solve natural phenomena.
The Church is an orgainized institution that has always been stumbling to block progress.

Emma Goldman

-

Fuck religion, even the Bible tells you you're all sheep. Did you ever stop to think what that meant?

Ben Sanger

-

You keep believing, I'll keep evolving.

Bumper Sticker

Religion is like farting: we like our own but hate everyone elses.

Homer Simpson

-

Salvation lies with ourselves, for we live in a world that had been self-generated through the accidental coming together of atoms;
particles of matter which move within an infinite variety, but without any overall purpose, goal, or design.

Ancient Roman Epicureans

-

God is just an excuse for the unkown.

-

I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own --
a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body,
although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotisms.

Albert Einstein

-

You're basically killing each other to see who's got the better imaginary friend.

Yasir Arafat, on going to war over religion

-

The belief in a supernatural source of evil is not necessary; men are quite capable of every wickedness.

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle.
Then I realised that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me.
