What do you think of these anti-religion Proverbs?


naruto What do you think of these anti-religion Proverbs? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Power corrupts; Absolute power corrupts absolutely; God is all-powerful. Draw your own conclusions." "Surgeon General's Warning: Quitting Religion Now Greatly Increases the Chances of World Peace." "Two hands working can do more than a thousand clasped in prayer." "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence" - Carl Sagan "God made me an atheist. Who are you to question his wisdom?" "It is an interesting and demonstrable fact, that all children are atheists and were religion not inculcated into their minds, they would remain so." - Ernestine Rose "We must question the story logic of having an all-knowing, all-powerful God, who creates faulty humans, and then blames them for his own mistakes." - Gene Roddenberry "I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other gods you will understand why I dismiss yours." - Stephen F. Roberts "Suppose we've chosen the wrong god. Every time we go to church we're just making him madder and madder." - Homer Simpson "It may be that our role on this planet is not to worship God, but to create him." - Arthur C. Clarke "Give a man a fish, and you'll feed him for a day; give him a religion, and he'll starve to death while praying for a fish." - Author Unknown "If god doesn't like the way I live, let him tell me, not you." "Any belief worth having must survive doubt." "Philosophy is questions that may never be answered. Religion is answers that may never be questioned." "Faith is often the boast of the man who is too lazy to investigate." - F. M. Knowles "To explain the unknown by the known is a logical procedure; to explain the known by the unknown is a form of theological lunacy." - David Brooks, The Necessity of Atheism "Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction." - Blaise Pascal "Forgive, O Lord, any little jokes on Thee, and I'll forgive Thy great big one on me." - Robert Frost "The sailor does not pray for wind, he learns to sail" -Gustaf Lindborg "Religion is excellent stuff for keeping common people quiet." -Napoleon Bonaparte "Only the fool says in his heart: There is no god -- The wise says it to the world" "Faith is deciding to allow yourself to believe something your intellect would otherwise cause you to reject -- otherwise there's no need for faith." "Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away." -Philip K. **** "If 50 million people believe a foolish thing, it is still a foolish thing" -Anatole France "The only difference between God and Adolf Hitler is that God is more proficient at genocide." Traveller: God has been mighty good to your fields, Mr. Farmer. Farmer: You should have seen how he treated them when I wasn't around. "Theists think all gods but theirs are false. Atheists simply don't make an exception for the last one." It's your god. They're your rules. *You* go to hell. "The world holds two classes of men -- intelligent men without religion, and religious men without intelligence." -Abu'l-Ala-Al-Ma'arri (973-1057; Syrian poet) "If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed." -Albert Einstein "When belief in a god dies, the god dies." -Harlan Ellison "If there is a God, atheism must strike Him as less of an insult than religion." -Edmond and Jules de Goncourt "Kill one man and you are a murderer. Kill millions and you are a conqueror. Kill all and you are God." -Jean Rostand this was sent to me by email ..what do u think of it ? TC
scarlet Thank God I'm not on your email list Liban Hiya? Dubai Knight Interesting. What is more interesting is to note that many of these quotations are made by individuals who are generally considered to be 'exceptional thinkers'. It makes you think! :shock: :shock: :shock: Knight naruto
:lol: :lol: :lol: xibit too long to read Liban
I often think of thinking, but I think that thinking of thinking some thought that I should think of is not what I think I should do. Dubai Knight
I was thinking that too...but then I thought that sometimes I sit and think, and other times...I just sit! Just a thought!
:lol: :lol: :lol:
Knight mraph33
Exactly.....like Homer Simpson Dubai Knight
Hmm...you seem to be confused with the real world and the cartoon world!
The words were actually written by Matt Groenig, who is very much considered as a thinking commentator on the modern social issues of today. The Simpsons, and even Futurama, have been cited in University papers as satirical yet highly accurate observations on the US domestic microcosm.

Only the other day I went to a hamburger stand and said to the fool serving 'make me one with everything' ha ha ha he didn't get the joke. maybe he should have paid attention in school and he wouldn't have to listen to it. (smiles smugly) Chocoholic The real sad thing is that many of the quotes make perfect sense. Eros Many quotes are general and not necessarily pertaining to religion. I depends how u look at them. God
Yes, probably. Do you think my opinion would differ from yours then? God
I think you should install a spam filter! valkyrie "my view on religion is about the same view i have on aids, hopefully we'll find a cure before the end of this century." anonymous blogger
