" Allowing others to be stupid is one of the hardest and most important steps on the path to enlightenment."
"Man must learn to rely upon himself. Reading bibles will not protect him from the blasts of winter, but houses, fires, and clothing will. To prevent famine, one plow is worth a million sermons, and even patent medicines will cure more diseases than all the prayers uttered since the beginning of the world."
- Robert G. Ingersoll

You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into. ~Author Unknown
Oh, but of course the story of Adam and Eve was only ever symbolic, wasn't it? Symbolic?! So Jesus had himself tortured and executed for a symbolic sin by a non-existent individual? Nobody not brought up in the faith could reach any other conclusion than "barking mad". Richard Dawkins
“Human society is born in the shadow of religious fear, and in that stage the suppression of heresy is a sacred social duty. Then comes the rise of a priesthood, and the independent thinker is met with punishment in this world and the threat of eternal damnation hereafter. Even today it is from the religious side that the greatest danger to freedom of thought comes. Religion is the last thing man will civilise. †-- Chapman Cohen, The Meaning and Value of Freethought, 1932
“There are a score of great religions in the world. . . and each is a mighty fortress of graft.†-- Upton Sinclair's Magazine, April 1918

“I wondered a little why God was such a useless thing. It seemed a waste of time to have him. After that he became less and less, until he was . . . nothingness.†-- Frances Farmer, "God Dies," essay at 16
