It's A Quote

“Priests and conjurers are of the same trade.” (Thomas Paine)
"The world is my country; all of humanity are my brethren; and to do good deeds is my religion." (Thomas Paine)
"Pope farts so loudly and powerfully, that it is a wonder that it does not tear his hole and belly apart." - Martin Luther
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"

“Christianity did not become a major religion by the quality of its truth, but by the quantity of its violence.” (Michael Sherlock)

"Religion is the worst enemy of mankind. No single war in the history of humanity has killed as many people as religion has.” (Bill Murray)
