The universal religion - contempt for women.
Andrea Dworkin
Image
The cultural institutions which embody and enforce those interlocked aberrations-for instance, law, art, religion, nation-states, the family, tribe, or commune based on father-right-these institutions are real and they must be destroyed.
Andrea Dworkin
Image
Science is the only religion of mankind.
Arthur C. Clarke
Image
All sects are different, because they come from men morality is everywhere the same, because it comes from God.
Voltaire
Image
The Bible. That is what fools have written, what imbeciles commend, what rogues teach and young children are made to learn by heart.
Voltaire
Image
In all the disputes which have excited Christians against each other, Rome has invariably decided in favor of that opinion which tended most towards the suppression of the human intellect and the annihilation of the reasoning powers.
Voltaire
Image
I have a sense of them being Easter religions, for some reason. Christianity, of course, is a mystery religion, too, and I believe that Arthur Machen was one of those especially interested in the link between the pagan mysteries and the Christian ones. So, my experience was also a Machenesque experience.
Quentin S. Crisp
Image
If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent Him.
Voltaire
Image
Because there is a law such as gravity, the Universe can and will create itself from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the Universe exists, why we exist. It is not necessary to invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the Universe going.
Stephen Hawking
Image
Heresy is the lifeblood of religions. It is faith that begets heresies. There are no heresies in a dead religion.
Andre Suares
Image
In a dead religion there are no more heresies.
Andre Suares
Image
Every sensible man, every honorable man, must hold the Christian sect in horror.
Voltaire
Image
Let us meet four times a year in a grand temple with music, and thank God for all his gifts. There is one sun. There is one God. Let us have one religion. Then all mankind will be brethren.
Voltaire
Image
Superstition is to religion what astrology is to astronomy the mad daughter of a wise mother. These daughters have too long dominated the earth.
Voltaire
Image
Religion may be purified. This great work was begun two hundred years ago: but men can only bear light to come in upon them by degrees.
Voltaire
Image
Nothing can be more contrary to religion and the clergy than reason and common sense.
Voltaire
Image
Blind obedience is a sure sign of trouble. The likelihood of religion becoming evil is greatly diminished when there is freedom for individual thinking and when honest inquiry is encouraged.
Charles Kimball
Image
Since the whole affair had become one of religion, the vanquished were of course exterminated.
Voltaire
Image
Patriotism takes the place of religion in France. In the service of la patrie, the doing of one's duty is elevated into the sphere of exalted emotion.
W. C. Brownell
Image
You can fool some of the people some of the time -- and that's enough to make a decent living.
W. C. Fields
Image
If Christian people work together, they can succeed during this decade in winning back control of the institutions that have been taken from them over the past 70 years. Expect confrontations that will be not only unpleasant but at times physically bloody. When it is over, I am convinced God's people will emerge victorious.
Pat Robertson
Image
Where Church and State are habitually associated, it is natural that minds, even of a high order, should unconsciously come to regard religion as only a subtler mode of police.
James Russell Lowell
Image
If revival is being withheld from us it is because some idol remains still enthroned because we still insist in placing our reliance in human schemes because we still refuse to face the unchangeable truth that It is not by might, but by My Spirit.
Jonathan Goforth
Image
I've always believed that who a reporter votes for, what religion they are, who they love, should not be something they have to discuss publicly.
Anderson Cooper
