Hey, I get to pull out my Ingersoll again! (It's ok, ladies, nothing particularly controversial here):
and the classic:
Quote:Every sect is a certificate that God has not plainly revealed his will to man. To each reader the Bible conveys a different meaning.
-- Robert Green Ingersoll, "Some Mistakes of Moses"

-- Robert Green Ingersoll, quoted from Jonathon Green, The Cassell Dictionary of Insulting Quotations
and the classic:
Quote:The churches have no confidence in each other. Why? Because they are acquainted with each other.
