WHAT A NUGGET OF WISDOM!!!

[necksnapper4you]

Truly missed!

[cosminpvictor]

Faith means making virtue out of nothing and that's nothing to brag about. Those who preach faith and enable and elevate it are our intellectual slaveholders, keeping mankind in a bondage to fantasy and nonsense that has spawned lunacy and destruction.

Religion is dangerous because it allows human beings who don't have all the answers to think they do.

The only appropriate attitude for man to have about the big questions is not the arrogant certitude that is the hell mark of religion, but doubt.
