teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
“When inventing a god, the most important thing is to claim it is invisible, inaudible, and imperceptible in any way. Otherwise, people will become skeptical when it appears to no one, is silent and does nothing.” (Lindsey Brown)
"The world is my country; all of humanity are my brethren; and to do good deeds is my religion." (Thomas Paine)

"Like most English people, I'm not a great believer. I've read Dawkins' book and it's very persuasive. I'm more in awe of the universe and that's not really a belief in God...Killing for ideas is the most dangerous form of killing at all...Dying for an idea, like in religion, is absurd." (Mick Jagger)
"The world is my country; all of humanity are my brethren; and to do good deeds is my religion." (Thomas Paine)

As a Saxon, I abhor all dynasties, monarchies, and bayonet governments, but this latter seems the only one suitable to the Celtic man.' - anatomist Robert Knox, 1850
