About Me:
OFTEN UNEMPLOYED
ATHEIST, FREETHINKER.
LOVES THE KIDS.
RELIGIOUS SKEPTIC
I THINK RELIGION IS A CRUTCH.
"We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones. Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born. The potential people who could have been here in my place but who will in fact never see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Arabia. Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Keats, scientists greater than Newton. We know this because the set of possible people allowed by our DNA so massively exceeds the set of actual people. In the teeth of these stupefying odds it is you and I, in our ordinariness, that are here."
-Richard Dawkins
"We have it in our power to begin the world over again"...Thomas Paine
"the unexamined life is not worth living" -Socrates
To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom.
- Bertrand Russell
"Why is God considered an explanation for anything? It's not - it's a failure to explain, a shrug of the shoulders, an 'I dunno' dressed up in spirituality and ritual. -The God Delusion
"In the long run, nothing can withstand reason and experience, and the contradiction religion offers to both is palpable." - Sigmund Freud
"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." - George Carlin
"It was, of course, a lie...I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly."
Albert Einstein
"Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people."
Karl Marx
"It is said that men may not be the dreams of the Gods, but rather that the Gods are the dreams of men."
Carl Sagan
"In the absence of fear there is little faith."
Michael Pain
"I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do because I notice it always coincides with their own desires."
Susan B. Anthony
"Gods are fragile things; they may be killed by a whiff of science or a dose of common sense."
Chapman Cohen
"It ain't those parts of the Bible that I can't understand that bother me, it's the parts that I do understand."
- Mark Twain
"I don't need facts when I have JESUS amen!...an OPEN mind is a devils playground." - Pastor Deacon Fred, Atheist Alliance 2007 Convention
"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?
Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing?
Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing?
Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God?"
-Epicurus
Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the philosophers as false, and by the rulers as useful.
-Seneca the Younger
"Religion is excellent stuff for keeping common people quiet"
"Religion is What Keeps the Poor from Murdering the Rich" -Napoleon Bonaparte
"The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully." - Richard Dawkins. The God Delusion
In ... (black) communities you find more tolerance towards gangbangers, drug addicts, and prostitutes, who pray to God for forgiveness than for honest productive citizens who deny the existence of God. This, for me, is one of the most embarrassing elements of Black culture, our zealous embrace of the God of our kidnappers, murderers, slave masters and oppressors. The Black Atheist, Wrath James White.

Educated people & Belief: Studies show that the more educated an individual, the less likely he is to be deeply religious or to even believe in a god.
When one person suffers from a delusion, it is called insanity. When many people suffer from a delusion it is called religion. Robert Pirsig
Any fact claim unsupported by empirical evidence can justifiably be treated as a product of the imagination." -ancientatheist
