“Nothing new, nothing stimulating came from my church experience ─ just an ongoing drone that served no other purpose than to deafen my ears. I came to the realization that having a mind opened by wonder is much more beautiful and exciting than a mind closed by belief.” (Sage Mauldin)
"The world is my country; all of humanity are my brethren; and to do good deeds is my religion." (Thomas Paine)
Astronauts coming back from space had to splash down in the water, and I hated the water. I didn’t know how to swim that well. . . . I was scared of heights, too. Still am. Standing on a balcony four or five stories up and looking over? No, thank you. I didn’t like roller coasters, either. They’re scary. Hanging upside down? It makes you sick. Who wants to do that?
- astronaut Dr. Mike Massimino
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"
"If you listen to the fans, you'll be sitting up there with them."
Buddy Ryan
‘There’s no better songwriter than Kris Kristofferson. Everything he writes is a standard, and we’re all just going to have to live with that.’ - Willie Nelson

‘I can’t be having with this.’ - Esmeralda Weatherwax

“It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.”
- Mark Twain
“I’ll tell you what you did with atheists for about 1500 years. You outlawed them from universities, or any teaching careers, besmirched their reputations, banned or burned their books or writings of any kind, drove them into exile, humiliated them, seized their properties, arrested them for blasphemy. You dehumanized them with beatings and exquisite torture, gouged out their eyes, slit their tongues, stretched, crushed, or broke their limbs, tore off their breasts if they were a woman, crushed their scrotums if they were men, imprisoned them, stabbed them, disemboweled them, hung them, burnt them alive. And you have the nerve enough to complain that I laugh at you?” (Madalyn Murray-O’Hair)

We know that they are lying, they know that they are lying, they even know that we know they are lying, we also know that they know we know they are lying too, they of course know that we certainly know they know we know they are lying too as well, but they are still lying. In our country, the lie has become not just moral category, but the pillar industry of this country.

I have a large seashell collection, which I keep scattered on beaches all over the world. Maybe you've seen it.
