Not every religion has to have St. Augustine's attitude to sex. Why even in our culture marriages are celebrated in a church, everyone present knows what is going to happen that night, but that doesn't prevent it being a religious ceremony.
Ludwig Wittgenstein
Image
The enemies of the Christian religion and the Law of God confuse law with faith.
Randall Terry

A man is his own easiest dupe, for what he wishes to be true he generally believes to be true.
Demosthenes

I read the book of Job last night, I don't think God comes out well in it.

Religion is so focused on family. These days, for many people, being gay is also focused on family.
Andrew Solomon

You would get longer livelier and more frequent letters from me, if it weren't for the Christian religion. How that bell tolling at the end of the garden, dum dum, dum dum, annoys me! Why is Christianity so insistent and so sad?
Virginia Woolf

What nearly everybody in my life had misunderstood about Satanism was that it is not about ritual sacrifices, digging up graves and worshipping the devil. The devil doesn't exist. Satanism is about worshipping yourself, because you are responsible for your own good and evil.
Marilyn Manson

I've got no problem with anybody's religion. But if you go claiming the Earth is only 10,000 years old, that's just wrong.
Bill Nye

In religion faith does not spring out of feeling, but feeling out of faith. The less we feel the more we should trust. We cannot feel right till we have believed.
Horatius Bonar

Sustainability has become a religion in architecture - not that there's anything wrong with it - but I think it has to work both ways. Everyone thinks architecture has to be subservient to sustainability, but what if we thought in the other direction, like, what can sustainability do to make architecture more exciting?
Vito Acconci
Image
Just as once upon a time you could make the experience of religion or nature a great metaphor, so now it is with love. It's just not the kind of thing you can put at the center of a work of literature and have it really reveal us to ourselves.
Vivian Gornick

I could not do otherwise without transcending the limits prescribed by the Constitution for the President and without feeling that I might in some degree disturb the security which religion nowadays enjoys in this country in its complete separation from the political concerns of the General Government.
Andrew Jackson

Give me a child for the first 5 years of his life and he will be mine forever.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
Autocracy cannot do without its twin agents: a hangman and a priest, the first to suppress popular resistance by force, the second to sweeten and embellish the lot of the oppressed with empty promises of a heavenly kingdom.
Vladimir Lenin
Image
The establishment of Christianity . . . arrested the normal development of the physical sciences for over fifteen hundred years.
Andrew Dickson White

I give money for church organs in the hope the organ music will distract the congregation's attention from the rest of the service.

He that cannot reason is a fool. He that will not is a bigot. He that dare not is a slave.
Andrew Carnegie

If you are a Christian, you are in danger. If you decided to abandon your faith and become an atheist, you also are to be liquidated according to their concept. You are in danger if you decide to become a Muslim. It is not going to save you anyway because they believe traditional Islam is hostile to their goals.
Vladimir Putin
Image
There are a lot of legislators who are afraid that kids will learn science and lose their faith.
Lawrence M. Krauss
Image
That's all religion is -- some principle you believe in . . . man has accomplished far more miracles than the God he invented. What a tragedy it is to invent a God and then suffer to keep him King.
Rod Steiger
Image
They took away our land, our language, and our religion but they could never harness our tongues.
