Chuck Palahniuk Chuck Palahniuk The unreal is more powerful than the real, because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. Because it's only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. Stone crumbles. Wood rots. People, well, they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on. If you can change the way people think, the way they see themselves, the way they see the world, you can change the way people live their lives. That's the only lasting thing you can create.
Omar Masri Omar Masri Gods are no more then sugar pills, a placebo if you will.

Davo Yumpus Davo Yumpus Christians wanting laws passed that we all have to follow should tread carefully for they may pave the way for Muslims, Jews, Hindu's or others to create laws for us all to follow,... The only way to keep a religion you don't like out of law is to keep them ALL out !
Baron von Knifty Baron von Knifty An Atheist who commits murder has a mental disorder, not because he is a nonbeliever.
Most religious people kill because they believe their god commands them to. Therefore, religion creates mental disorders where none were evident before.
Dimitri Rossi Dimitri Rossi Dear Christians

How is your god perfect? Perfect beings have no desires, or needs. Your gods does not fit in the description of perfection. He desires, and needs for his most abundant creation to praise and love him or her unconditionally.
Aleksandar Sretenovic Aleksandar Sretenovic People keep throwing coins in the well, wishing that their desires will come true, and when they dont, they blame the well.
Dan Barker Dan Barker I do understand what love is, and that is one of the reasons I can never again be a Christian. Love is not self denial. Love is not blood and suffering. Love is not murdering your son to appease your own vanity. Love is not hatred or wrath, consigning billions of people to eternal torture because they have offended your ego or disobeyed your rules. Love is not obedience, conformity, or submission. It is a counterfeit love that is contingent upon authority, punishment, or reward. True love is respect and admiration, compassion and kindness, freely given by a healthy, unafraid human being.
Aleksandar Sretenovic Aleksandar Sretenovic Sinews of war are infinite money, sinews of religion are infinite wars.

Baron von Knifty Baron von Knifty What Is Wrong With This Country?: People are more worried about gay rights than child-raping priests; more involved with their own “specialness” than those in dire need; more concerned with dying for lies instead of living for truths.
Dee Jay Dee Jay people have always believed in a god(s),many have come and gone over time-- why the story about this current particular one has stuck around and remained believable for so many, for so long is the real mystery.
Baron von Knifty Baron von Knifty Everyone in the world is an Atheist. Many just deny or don’t realize that fact.

I'm not against religions per se, I just don't see a call for imagined gods. Gods that have obviously been created by Man from around the very first moment that Man developed abstract thought as we evolved from our ape ancestry.

Early evolving Man would've needed to answer questions. Why does the sun rise and fall? What is that noise in the sky? Why does the ground shake? Why does that mountain roar and belch fire and smoke? Why am I here?

To all of those questions (and many more) Man didn't have answers. So he put it down to mysterious forces that were out of his control and understanding. GOD was born to take the credit.
Jenz Kjellberg Jenz Kjellberg Not another word in history is more laden with pain, misery and death that the word "sin". How can religon demand respect when this word is still used?
Jenz Kjellberg Jenz Kjellberg If religion is opium for the people we should have it banned as a narcotic.
Vincent Taylor Vincent Taylor It is sad that fear of punishment is what keeps some people good.
Daniel McGuire Daniel McGuire The ideal of god is war,death and decay he never helps with his fights and always hides intell its over. So if he is up thier any way and im sure hes not he would be a coward,a fake and a murderer
Eva Guggenheim DeLamater Eva Guggenheim DeLamater I have not one shred of evidence that things will be any different for me after my death than before my birth.
Daniel Lane Daniel Lane Faith is the fear of investigating the truth of our convictions.
Diane Fadden Diane Fadden When I find myself marveling at a fiery sunset, or a cloud formation across blue sky, or reflections of the skyline on a clear glacier lake, I reflect at the beauty and majesty of the natural world, and the feeling that gives me is wonderful, just the awareness I am a part of nature. To take that feeling and then...try to imagine that the bloodthirsty tyrant god described in the bible is somehow behind it all...is to deminish my experience completely.
Diane Fadden Diane Fadden If belief in your god serves as a safety net below the tight-rope of life, just in case your religion is true, I'd much rather live without it, thank you very much, and live my life like it's the only life I get to have.
Daniel Lane Daniel Lane It's easy to overlook the contradictions in the bible when you don't read it.
James Kerins James Kerins The walls of faith are stronger than that of any prison and just as impenetrable.
The Satanic Bible The Satanic Bible There is no heaven of glory bright, and no hell where sinners burn. Here and now
our day of torment! Here and now is our day of joy! Here and now is our opportunity! choice
you this day, this hour, for no redeemer live!
Quentin R. Bufogle I want an avowed atheist in the White House. When time comes to push that button, I want whoever's making the decision to understand that once it's pushed, it's over. Finito. They're not gonna have lunch with Jesus. Won't be deflowering 72 virgins on the great shag carpet of eternity, or reincarnated as a cow. I want someone making that decision who believes life on this Earth isn't just a dress rehearsal for something better -- but the only shot we get.
Baron von Knifty
A wafer heaven is designed exclusively for those who give everything away. How many of you flockers are ready for that commitment?
Geovanni Martinez I don't think that there is no God.
I don't believe that there is no God.
I don't wonder that there is no God.
I know that there is no God.
Straatligkind Religion is a steaming pile of freshly deposited dog shit...go figure.
Raju When there was nothing, God was there, When there would be nothing, He w'll be there, Imagine the boredom He was through and would be, the everlasting one.
Gloria Steinem It’s an incredible con job when you think about it, to believe something now in exchange for something after death. Even corporations with their reward systems don’t try to make it posthumous
Joel Mahon I believe in Batman, I have read about him in a book.

Free thinking Theism?

According to the "expert" historians of the day - who helped compile the Old Testament (you may wish to check it out sometime), the Universe and everything therein was created in 4004 BC. I have socks that are older than that!

If the theist community can believe lies such as are contained in the holy book(s) they'll believe that some geese can lay golden eggs.

Free thinkers: with every four gallons of hogwash.
Dean Andre Wallschlaeger We are all traveling on the highway to infinity. Only Religion can turn it into a toll road.
Carolyn Flanagan IF God created planet earth.. don't you think he'd brag about his creation being a sphere SOMEWHERE in the Bible. Those that believe the Bible , must also believe that the earth is flat and has 'ends' and 'corners'.
Timmy g Religion is a lovely concept I would really like to believe and take comfort from it sadly I can't believe in something with so many contradictions and flaws we all have a very far fetched dream but we know its not a reality people need to wake from there religious dream
Unknown To have to teach science, together with nonsense…is insanity
Dr. Idel Dreimer, www.lumpenbangenpiano.com "God" is a blank slate onto which varied human beliefs are inscribed; thus he is as multi-faceted as he is unreliable.
Unknown There is no god..........only tacos.
osirisnut The bible is an acronym for babble, idiocy, bastardize, lunacy and evil.
NoGods4Me Some godbots insist that just because we talk about a fictional character called "Christ", it must mean that he really existed. By that flawed logic, talking about Zeus or Harry Potter or Batman must mean that they also existed in reality.
Rainsford There are many things in the bible that would be considered morally wrong in today's society, yet theists hypocritically preach that religion is the right path to morality, when its obviously the opposite.


van Stootgare Looks like paedophilia in the Catholic church has its origins in the bible....read Numbers 31 17-18..truly disgusting!!!.I suppose the priests can always explain it away by saying if it is in the bible its good enough for me...
osirisnut Lets put things into perspective, science means knowledge and is a systematic enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the universe. That's a fact and each year it expands. Now lets look at a religion. Jesus was born of a virgin, Jesus dies on the cross then Jesus turns into a zombie and that is the foundation for the largest religion on earth. And it's the same drivel they spout year in and year out and is believed by millions.
PhoenixBreadLeWacoCreeper Why would someone praise a person who was made up in someone else's imagination and is sexist, homophobic, arrogant, destructive, evil? It makes me doubt human kind even more than I did before
osirisnut Imagine the Earth approx 2000 years ago, a woman approaches a man and says. Hi Joe how are you? Joe replies not bad mary doll and you? Mary doll says i have some great news joe i'm pregnant, but your not the fa.... at that precise moment in time she would have been hit with the first stone of many that would end her life and the life of the fetus. So in conclusion no virgin birth and certainly no jesus.
Brian Vorn faith is an illusion of miracle, miracle are the taunting thought of false.

The very fact that many hundreds of gods and their religions have been well and truly consigned to history should give us hope that today's gods and their religions will - more than likely - follow suit in the near future.

When one gives up entirely on thinking!

A FB friend writes:

"Belief in a spiritual realm of some type has been around for many thousands of years. I can not see it disappearing anytime soon."

I write:

"The human race managed perfectly well without gods for maybe a million years before our imagination took us to another level.

"Maybe it IS possible to reverse the human situation by using our imagination more positively."
EA Miller EA Miller If you truly “walk by faith” and not #science, perhaps you should have the GPS removed from your vehicle.
EA Miller EA Miller “There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn’t true. The other is to refuse what is true.”

-Soren Kierkegaard

Odd how that sounds like every religious person in the history of humankind.
EA Miller EA Miller Those who do not desire to understand the universe, and cannot wait for scientific investigation to find the answers, fill in the blanks with their “magical” god of choice and they are completely satisfied with this explanation.

In other words… Memorize myth as fact, ignore that which contradicts it, and give up entirely on critical thinking.
