Stephen Fry

Stephen Fry
There are a lot of good atheist quotes at:

http://www.celebatheists.com/

The following two quotes are from Stephen Fry:

"Yes, there may be a creator. I don't think it at all likely."

"I've always believed that everything that is said from authority
is either the authority of one's own heart, one's own brain, one's
own reading, one's own trust, but not the authority of someone who
claims it because they're speaking for God and they know the truth
because it's written in a book. That, essentially, is where I come
from. In a sense, tolerance is my religion. Reason is my religion."

Quotes from Stephen Fry unrelated to religion:

"An original idea. That can't be too hard. The library must be full of them."

"I don't need you to remind me of my age, I have a bladder to do that for me."

"If ignorance is bliss, why aren't there more happy people in the world?"

"It is a cliché that most clichés are true, but then like most clichés, that cliché is untrue."

RE: Stephen Fry
That is indeed a truly wonderful video.
To comment on the video itself rather than the quotes I posted perhaps you should comment here where I already posted the video (along side another smaller extra one) on these forums: http://www.atheistforums.org/thread-296.html

Thanks leo-rcc.very good.particularly appreciate Fry being a Shelleyan.
" Prometheus Unbound " is far too clever for me to understand, unlike " Queen Mab " which I regard as Shelley's masterpiece.
HuhA man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
