“I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.” –Stephen F. Roberts
"It's an incredible con job when you think about it, to believe something now, in exchange for something after death." -Gloria Steinem
"It is far better to grasp the universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring." -Carl Sagan
“Religious wars are basically people killing each other over who has the better imaginary friend.” –Author Unknown
“The fruits of Christianity were religious wars, butcheries, crusades, inquisitions, extermination of the natives of America, and the introduction of African slaves in their place.” –Arthur Schopenhauer

“The Church has opposed every innovation and discovery from the day of Galileo down to our own time, when the use of anesthetic in childbirth was regarded as a sin because it avoided the biblical curse pronounced against Eve. And every step in astronomy and geology ever taken has been opposed by bigotry and superstition. The Greeks surpassed us in artistic culture and in architecture five hundred years before Christian religion was born.” –Mark Twain
“The Christian Mythologists tell us, that Christ died for the sins of the world, and that he came on purpose to die. Would it not then have been the same if he had died of a fever or of the small-pox, of old age, or of anything else?” –Thomas Paine
