Religion has actually convinced
people that there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything
you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special
list of 10 things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these
10 things he has a special place full of fire and smoke and burning and
torture and anguish where he will send you to live and suffer and burn
and choke and scFream and cry for ever and ever until the end of time...but
he loves you. ~ George Carlin

Simple molecules combine
to make powerful chemicals. Simple cells combine to make powerful life-forms.
Simple electronics combine to make powerful computers. Logically, all things
are created by a combination of simpler, less capable components. Therefore,
a supreme being must be our future, not our origin!~ from his Dilbert comic
strip
Nothing defines humans better than
their willingness to do irrational things in the pursuit of phenomenally
unlucky payoffs. This is the principle of lotteries, dating and religion.
Steve Allen
If you pray for rain long enough,
it eventually does fall. If you pray for floodwaters to abate, they
eventually do. The same happens in the absence of prayers.
No actual tyrant known to history

If it turns out that there is a God, I don't think that
he's evil. But the worst that you can say about him is that basically he's
an underachiever.

If there really is a God who created
the entire universe with all of its glories, and He decides to deliver
a message to humanity, He will not use, as His messenger, a person on cable

The problem with writing about religion is that you run

The Vatican is against surrogate

Marlon Brando ~ refusing to recite a religious
oath while testifying at his son Christian's trial, 1990
I will not swear on God. I will
not swear on God, because I don't believe in the conceptual sense and in
this nonsense. What I will swear on is my children and my grandchildren.
A. Whitney Brown
Once again decent citizens will
be able to enter this house of worship, kneel down in front of a nearly-naked
man hanging from a wooden apparatus by a series of gruesome body piercings,
and engage in their bizarre practices of ritualized blood-drinking and
cannibalism without being assaulted by graphic images of attractive young
women with bare breasts. - A. Whitney Brown, "The Daily Show" on Comedy

Richard Burton ~ Welsh actor (1925-1984)
The more I read about man and his
maniacal ruthlessness and his murderous envious scatological soul, the
more I realize that he will never change. Our stupidity is immortal, nothing
will change it. The same mistakes, the same prejudices, the same injustice,
the same lusts wheel endlessly around the parade ground of the centuries.
Immutable and ineluctable. I wish I could believe in a god of some kind
but I simply cannot.
George Bush, Sr.
I don't know that atheists should

L. Sprague de Camp
It does not pay a prophet to be
too specific.
George Carlin
When it comes to believing in God, I really, really tried
. . . but . . . the more you look around, the more you realize . . . something
is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty,
torture, crime, corruption, the Ice Capades. . . . This is not good work.
If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed. Results like these
do not belong on the resume of a Supreme Being.
Religion easily has the greatest bullshit story
ever told. Think about it. Religion has actually convinced people that
there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do,
every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of
ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things,
he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture
and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke
and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time!
But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He
always needs money! He's all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise,
somehow just can't handle money! Religion takes in billions of dollars,
they pay no taxes, and they always need a little more. Now, you talk about
a good bullshit story. Holy Shit!
I've begun worshipping the Sun for a number of reasons.
First of all, unlike some other gods I could mention, I can see the Sun.
It's there for me every day. And the things it brings me are quite apparent
all the time: heat, light, food, a lovely day. There's no mystery, no one
asks for money, I don't have to dress up, and there's no boring pageantry.
And interestingly enough, I have found that the prayers I offer to the
sun and the prayers I formerly offered to God are all answered at about
the same 50-percent rate.
The bloodiest, most brutal wars fought, all based on religious
hatred. Which is fine with me! Any time a bunch of holy people want to
go out and kill each other I'm a happy guy!
Charlie Chaplin
By simple common sense I don't
believe in God, in none.
In Philadelphia, I inadvertently came upon an edition
of Robert Ingersoll's Essays and Lectures. This was an exciting discovery;
his atheism confirmed my own belief that the horrific cruelty of the Old

Steven Colbert
Remember, Jesus would rather constantly shame gays than
let orphans have a family.
Michael Crichton
Organized religion is a business
and nothing else, unless you want to think of it as a way to organize wars
efficiently. Also organized religion tells you what ot think, and I believe
the only way to know about God is to find out on your own. What somebody
else tells you is of very little use. I believe that we are all God, and
God is all of us. But this means you can find out everything you need to
know by yourself, by what you see and what you feel. Nobody knows any more
than you do -- even though you're just in the fifth grade.

Larry Flynt
I have left my religious conversion behind and settled
into a comfortable state of atheism. I have come to think that religion
has caused more harm than any other idea since the beginning of time. The
Jerry Falwells of this world are living proof of the hypocrisy.
Wil Forbis
I've yet to find anything convincing
about the arguments Christians make for the existence of this God chap,
and feel that if he does exist, events such as the Holocaust, Cambodian

Butch Hancock

Life in Lubbock, Texas taught me
two things. One is that God loves you and you're going to burn in hell.
The other is that sex is the most awful, dirty thing on the face of the
earth and you should save it for someone you love.
Hugh Hefner
Religion is a miyth we have invented to explain the inexplicable.
The univers is so beyond comprehension. What does it all mean -- if it
has any meaning at all? . . . I think anyone who suggests that they have
the answers is motivated by the need to invent answers, because we have
no such answers.

Billy Joel
I wasn't raised Catholic, but I
used to go to Mass with my friends, and I viewed the whole business as
a lot of very enthralling hocus-pocus. There's a guy hanging upon the wall
in the church, nailed to a cross and dripping blood, and everybody's blaming
themselves for that man's torment, but I said to myself, 'Forget it. I
had no hand in that evil. I have no original sin. There’s no blood of any
sacred martyr on my hands. I pass on all of this.
I believe that all important matters
have to be settled here, not in the clouds somewhere after we kick off.
Garrison Keillor
My ancestors were Puritans from
England. They arrive here in 1658 in hopes of finding greater restrictions

Stanley Kubrick (1928-1999) ~ Movie director:
Space Odyssey: 2001
The whole idea of god is absurd.
If anything, 2001 shows that what some people call "god" is simply an acceptable
term for their ignorance. This film is a rejection of the notion that there
is a god; isn't that obvious.
I'd be very surprised if the universe wan't full of an
intelligence of an order that to us would seem God-like. . . When you think
of the giant technological strides that man has made in a few millennia
-- less than a microsecond in the chronology of the universe -- can you
imagine the evolutionary development that much older life forms have taken?
Their potentialities would be limitless and their intelligence ungraspable
in humans.

Monty Python
A reading from the Book of Armaments,
Chapter 4, Verses 16 to 20:
Then did he raise on high the Holy
Hand Grenade of Antioch, saying, "Bless this, O Lord, that with it thou
mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy." And the people did
rejoice and did feast upon the lambs and toads and tree-sloths and fruit-bats
and orangutans and breakfast cereals... Now did the Lord say, "First thou
pullest the Holy Pin. Then thou must count to three. Three shall be the
number of the counting and the number of the counting shall be three. Four
shalt thou not count, neither shalt thou count two, excepting that thou
then proceedeth to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being
the number of the counting, be reached, then lobbest thou the Holy Hand
Grenade in the direction of thine foe, who, being naughty in my sight,
shall snuff it." - Monty Python, Monty Python and the Holy Grail
MONTY PYTHON'S ODE TO CREATION
All things dull and ugly ~ All creatures short and squat

All things sick and cancerous ~ All evil great and small
~ All things foul and dangerous ~ The Lord God made them all.
Each nasty little hornet ~ Each beastly little squid ~
Who made the spikey urchin ~ Who made the sharks? He did.
All things scabbed and ulcerous ~ All pox both great and
small ~ Putrid, foul and gangrenous ~ The Lord God made them all.

in a mysterious way. - Ferndean School Report on God - The brand

There's a gullible side to the
American people. They can be easily misled. Religion is the best device
used to mislead them.
Henry M. Morris
(1918-2006) Founder of the Institute of Creation Research
The only way we can determine the
true age of the earth is for God to tell us what it is. And since He has
told us, very plainly, in the Holy Scriptures that it is several thousand
years in age, and no more, that ought to settle all basic questions of
terrestrial chrnology.
Emo Philips
When I was a kid I used to pray

The feminist agenda is about a socialist,

Andy Rooney ~ American radio and television
writer and commentator
Why am I an atheist? I ask you:
Why is anybody not an atheist? Everyone starts out being an atheist. No
one is born with belief in anything. Infants are atheists until they are
indoctrinated. I resent anyone pushing their religion on me. I don't push
my atheism on anybody else. Live and let live. Not many people practice
that when it comes to religion." Marian Christy, "Conversations: We make
our own destiny.
I am an atheist... I don't understand
religion at all. I'm sure I'll offend a lot of people by saying this, but
I think it's all nonsense.
Charles Schultz ~ American cartoonist (1922-2000)
In an interview in 1999, Schultz
said that although his philosophical views evolved over the years, "the
term that best describes me now is 'secular humanist.'" He went on to say,
"I despise those shallow religious comics. Dennis the Menace, for instance,
is the most shallow. When they show him praying--I just can't stand that
sort of thing, talking to God about some cutesy thing that he'd done during
the day. I don't think Hank Ketcham [Dennis' creator] has any deep knowledge
of things like that." Schultz cringed at the mention of Family Circus,
the strip by Bill Keane that is strewn with cutesy references to Jesus
(who wants to protect children on school buses, but can't because of laws
about separation of church and state!) and those sickly-sweet images of
invisible deceased grandparents looming protectively over the kids. "Oh,
I can't stand that," Schultz laughed. "You could get diabetes reading them,
couldn't you?"

The essence of Christianity is
told us in the Garden of Eden history. The fruit that was forbidden was
on the Tree of Knowledge. The subtext is, All the suffering you have is
because you wanted to find out what was going on. You could be in the Garden
of Eden if you had just kept your fucking mouth shut and hadn't asked any
questions. . . . Is this not an absolutely anti-intellectual religion?
I don't want to see any religious people in public office

If you want to get together in any

desperate sociology on the idea of The Cloud-Guy who has The Big Book,
who knows if you've been bad or good- and CARES about any of it- to hang
it all on that, folks, is the chimpanzee part of the brain working.
My best advice to anyone who wants to raise a happy, mentally

Several thousand years ago, a small
tribe of ignorant near-savages wrote various collections of myths, wild
tales, lies, and gibberish. Over the centuries, these stories were embroidered,
garbled, mutilated, and torn into small pieces that were then repeatedly
shuffled. Finally, this material was badly translated into several languages
successively. The resultant text, creationists feel, is the best guide
to this complex and technical subject.
