‘Of all the strange “crimes” that human beings have legislated out of nothing, “blasphemy” is the most amazing - with “obscenity” and “indecent exposure” fighting it out for second and third place.’ - Robert Heinlein

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"

“Before we understand science, it is natural to believe that God created the universe. But now science offers a more convincing explanation. What I meant by ‘we know the mind of God’ is, we know everything that God would know, if there is a God, which there isn’t. I’m an atheist.” (Stephen Hawking)
