Bill Hicks |
I love the Pope, I love seeing him in his Pope-Mobile, his three feet of bullet proof plexi-glass. That's faith in action folks! You know he's got God on his side. |
|
Calliope Muse |
After reading the bible, I have come to the conclusion that the god in their stories is an evil, sadistic, megalomaniacal monster. Why do theists insist upon worshiping such a creature, much less wanting to believe that it exists? |
|
Anne Lamott |
You can safely assume that you've created God in your own image when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do. |
|
Alan Harvey |
I told my children never to touch the fruit bowl. They were naughty and touched it though, so I threw them out in the middle of winter and cursed them to suffer horribly for the rest of their lives, and for all subsequent generations to suffer also. I forgave them by sending my newest child to them to be tortured and murdered. Am I a bit sick? |

Baron von Knifty |
The only one more pathetic than a person on their knees praying for salvation is the other person telling them it's all true.

Billionaires funding and supporting oppressive theocrats and fascists in the United States are literally destroying the country in real time. |

A PhD in theology is essentially a degree in advanced fairy-tale. The word "doctor"(Dr.)should never be placed in front of people's names that possess such degrees because they exploit it convincing millions of gullible followers world-wide that they are actually bearers of some great wisdom. |

Religious scientists( bless them )have discovered what christ did when he was overwhelmed by his followers. They said he would go for long walks on the sea of galilee. |

“Theology is philosophy’s idiot cousin.” -David Paul |
|
EA Miller |
The Bible's need to serve up virgin daughters like property, stone gay men to death, and have well-defined rules for slavery doesn't bode well for equality among the masses or for an individual’s rights within a society. |

If your religion determines your relationships, you are missing out on some exceptional human beings. My hope is that 2022 draws you away from a toxic belief systems and closer to actual humanity. |

Is the Bible racist? "...the curse or mark of Cain for killing his brother was a darkening of his descendants' skin. Historically, many congregations in the U.S. pointed to this story of Cain as evidence that Black skin was created as a punishment." -Michael P. |

Odd how billions of people around the world have prayed to a multitude of different "all-powerful" deities to stop the Coronavirus with absolutely no results. It's almost as if they're all make-believe! |

Why do the terminally religious always assume they're entitled to a say in other people's personal decision making? |
|
Pat Simons |
The people who would force religion into the public schools tend to become conspicuously less enthusiastic if the religion is going to be anything but their own. |

Religious explanations:
For those who have given up on science and research |

"It always amazes me when people assume that the religion their parents raised them in just happens to be the one true religion!"

Freedom comes when one decides NOT to dedicate their entire life to religious myth. |

I can forgive primitive peoples for believing the universe was made just for them. There is no possible excuse for such thinking today. |
|
EA Miller |
Many Christians believe that a stick (staff) Moses held was turned into a snake by god, yet completely deny that climate change is a real thing. We live in times when the sanity of religious folks seriously needs to be questioned. |
|
EA Miller |
Theists have given up on evidence based science in favor of mythical fantasy and the world is a train wreck because of it. Common sense and reality have been completely thrown out the window in their bizzaro world. |
|
EA Miller |
The bible myth is deeply ingrained in Christians' minds. As a result, all rational thought is lost. Not being able to refer to their imaginary friend to answer any question is unthinkable. Yet deep inside they know the truth. Otherwise funerals would be 'Going to Heaven' celebrations instead of such somber occasions. |

Church:
When your spouse, friends, and in-laws don't make you feel quite guilty enough! |

Religion:
When all rational, critical thinking is rejected and replaced with "God did it!"

Maybe there is no Heaven. Or maybe this is all pure gibberish a product of the demented imagination of a lazy drunken hillbilly with a heart full of hate who has found a way to live out where the real winds blow, to sleep late, have fun, get wild, drink whisky, and drive fast on empty streets with nothing in mind except falling in love and not getting arrested . . . Res ipsa loquitur. Let the good times roll.
Hunter S. Thompson, Generation of Swine: Tales of Shame and Degradation in the '80's

As the creators of reality at the frontiers of human knowledge, Science and the occult have become one. Religion can either become irrelevant by continuing to distance itself from Science and magic, as it always has done, or face the truth and pay homage to the one true God, the God of Science. - Ralph Metusi |

Worship none but Santa Claus... the only mythological figure who leaves evidence! |

The only difference between god and adolph hitler, is that god is more proficient at genocide |
|
EA Miller |
"The Biblical god was written to be a petty, jealous, violent tyrant because it’s much easier to manipulate people when they’re fearful. Most people wouldn’t fear a reasonable, compassionate god. But a bully who’ll strike you down for picking up sticks on the Sabbath? Scary." -GL |

Men who join the priestcraft train for five years in priestcraft college after which they leave having learned nothing. |

Why would an all-knowing, omnipresent god get massively upset every time human beings disappoint him? Does he somehow not see it coming? |
|
EA Miller |
Odd how so many more people survive illnesses now with medical science than when they just relied on prayer and superstition alone. |
|
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.

Today I listened to a TV priest say that if a woman is impregnated by a rapist, she is still "not permitted by God" to have an abortion. Catholicism is horrifying, misogynistic cult and needs to be disbanded. |

Christian Colleges:
Once you start combining fairy-tale with science and history, you can no longer call yourself an educational institution!

Catholic priests talk a lot but say very little, and the little they do say is bullshit. They should practice a vow of silence instead of celibacy. Obviously celibacy doesn't work. Hey, preachers, leave them kids alone. |

Man invented a god to pray to so that he could get forgiveness for the atrocities he has committed against humankind. |

If the Bible is the “unwavering literal word of God†as many Christians claim, why does it require so much interpretation? |
|
EA Miller |
Religion:
The non-thinking man's attempt to explain the universe in spectacular failing fashion. |
|
Pat Simons |
Creationists flail away at poor old Darwin with the idea that if the great man can just be discredited, they win by default. No, they don't. They have to prove their point too, and merely attacking Darwin doesn't do that. |

If religion were true, its followers would not try to bludgeon their young into an artificial conformity; but would merely insist on their unbending quest for truth... - H.P. Lovecraft |

Good God, how much reverence can you have for a Supreme Being who finds it necessary to include such phenomena as phlegm and tooth decay in his divine system of creation? - Joseph Heller |

If prayer worked, amputees would grow limbs. |

Prof Uri Nassol |
Science explains reality without considering human wishes, and that is it's greatest strength. Religion explains reality by only considering human wishes, and that is it's greatest weakness. So what do YOU want... reality, or self-indulgence? |

Why would anyone turn to God for advise in child rearing? Afterall, he drowned all his. |

God rested on the 7.th day what for ? surely the author of that statement doesnt know the meaning of OMNIPOTENT |

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him, would believe in anything. |

Cogito |
I liken a religious follower to a domesticated animal: intellectual curiosity fenced in by boundaries of faith, undesired behaviour choked by the chain of damnation, sexual developement neutered by idealic chastity, loyalty ensured by a feeding of righteousness every week. What once was a wolf, cunning and hardy, has now become a lapdog, blindly loyal and dependent on its master. Which would you wish to have in your house? |

Albert Ellis (American Psychologist) |
"OK, I'll admit that there is a .00000000000000005% chance that God does exist, but if he does what makes you think he gives a shit about you" |

Dr. Idel Dreimer |
The conventional, hopeful construction of "God" requires a clinical re-assessment. It is claimed he created this world of ruthless predation -- where most life forms must survive by eating others. He then appears to the top predator, and -- in return for reverence, obsequious praise, and undying devotion -- offers a compensatory escape -- paradisal and eternal -- from the unsavoury cauldron. No -- not just yet -- only when you are -- conveniently -- dead. The gullible murmur "saviour." The narrative says "psychopath." (Observation #1996) |

One of the primary objectives of religion in the modern world seems to be conditioning people to accept the idea nothing comes ahead of corporate profit. |

Ignore religion at your leisure. Ignore science at your peril. |

Religion is child abuse. It denies children the chance to rationally examine the world around them and places them on the path to narrow-minded bigotry. |
|
EA Miller |
On a planet with limited resources, why would an all-knowing god command his people to be fruitful and multiply? Recommending smaller families and contraception seems much more rational. |
|
EA Miller |
This Thanksgiving I am grateful to all of the scientists, past and present, who were responsible for all of the potentially life-saving vaccines that are available to us today. *Note, no gods were involved in the creation of these vaccines, just tons of empirical data and testing for validity. |

Religions are called faiths collectively because they believe something in absence of evidence - That's what it is! That's why it's called faith, otherwise, we'd call all religions evidence. But we don't for exactly that reason. Niel DeGrasse Tyson. |

If kids got raped by clowns as often as kids get raped by preachers, it would be against the law to take children to the circus. Dan Savage. |
