Robert Green Ingersoll Lawyer

I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it.

Alice Walker Author

Faith is a cop-out. If the only way you can accept an assertion is by faith, then you are conceding that it can't be taken on its own merits. It is intellectual bankruptcy.

Dan Barker Musician

Now, because men of our contemporary age are caught up in the ascetic view of a life-denying religious system, but in spite of this cannot deny the primal laws of nature, a distorted morality had to be developed, which spreads hypocritical appearances over hidden actions. This has brought to a head all those outward forms of modern life, whose vacuousness and corruption are now beginning to disgust us.

Guido Von List Poet

The philosopher has never killed any priests, whereas the priest has killed a great many philosophers.

Denis Diderot Philosopher

Hosea Ballou Writer

To judge religion we must have it--not stare at it from the bottom of a seemingly interminable ladder.

George Macdonald Author
