About this user

http://www.rationalskepticism.org

Atheist, anti-theist, humanist, feminist.

Many people have said many intelligent things on the subject of religion, here is a handful.

"By all means let an observant Jewish adult male have his raw-cut penis placed in the mouth of a rabbi. (That would be legal at least in NY city.) By all means let grown women who distrusts their clitoris or their labia have them sawn away by som other wretched adult female. By all means let Abraham offer to commit suicide to prove his devotion to the Lord or his belief in the voices he was hearing in his head. By all means let devout parents deny themselves the succor of medicine when they are in acute pain and distress. By all means - for all I care - let a priest sworn to celibacy be a promiscuos homosexual.By all means let a congregation that belives in whipping out the devil choose a new grown-up sinner each week and lash him until he or she bleeds. By all means let anyone who belives in creationism instruct his fellows during lunch breaks. But the conscription of the unprotected child for these purposes is something that even the most dedicated secularist can safely describe as sin."
p.51

"Religion comes from the period of human prehistory where nobody - not even the mighty Democritus who concluded that all matter was made from atoms - had the smallest idea what was going on. It comes from the bawling and fearful infancy of our species, and is a babyish attempt to meet our inescapable demand for knowledge ( as well as for comfort, reassurance, and other infantile needs). Today the least educated of my children knows much more about the natural order than any of the founders of religion, and one would like to think - though the connection is not a fully demonstrable one - that this is why they seem so unintrested in sending fellow humans to hell."p.64

"Many religions now come before us with ingratiating smirks and outspread hands, like an unctous merchant in a bazaar.They offer consolation and solidarity and uplift, competing as they do in a marketplace. But we have a right to remember how barbarically they behaved when they were strong and were making an offer few people could refuse. And if we chance to forget what that must have been like, we have only to look to those states and societies where the clergy still has the power to dictate its own terms. The pathetic vestiges of this can still be seen, in modern societies,in the efforts made by religion to secure control over education, or to exempt itself from tax, or to pass laws forbidding people to insult its omnipotent and omniscient deity, or even his prophet." p.67

"How can it be proven in one simple paragraph that this book (the bible, my insert) was written by ignorant men and not by any god? Because man is given dominion over all beasts, fowl and fish. But no dinosaurs or pleiosaurs or pterodactyls are specified, because the authors did not know of their existence, let alone of their supposedly special and immediate creation. Nor are any marsupials mentioned, because Australia - the next candidate after Meso America for a new "Eden" - was not on any known map. Most important, in Genesis man is not awarded dominion over germs and bacteria because the existence of these necessary yet dangerous creatures was not yet known or understood. And if it had been known or understood, it would at once have become apparent that these forms of life had "dominion" over us, and would continue to enjoy it uncontested until the priests had been elbowed aside and medical research at last given an opportunity." p. 40
