“Religious philosophy is slave philosophy.”
David Marshall Brooks, The Necessity Of Atheism

Ricky Gervais
“I believe the greatest privilege in this world is to use your freedom of speech for those who have no voice.”
Ricky Gervais

Richard C. Carrier
“We can only believe what we have evidence enough to prove.”
Richard C. Carrier, Why I Am Not a Christian: Four Conclusive Reasons to Reject the Faith

“Religion arose as a means of explanation of natural phenomena at a time when no other explanation of the origin of natural phenomena had been ascertained. God is always what Spinoza called it, "the asylum of ignorance." When causes are unknown, God is brought forward; when causes are known, God retires into the background. In an age of ignorance, God is active; in an age of science, he is impotent.”
David Marshall Brooks, The Necessity Of Atheism

James A. Haught
“A grim pattern is visible in history: When religion is the ruling force in a society, it produces horror. The stronger the supernatural beliefs, the worse the inhumanity. A culture dominated by intense faith invariably is cruel to people who don't share the faith--and sometimes to many who do.”
James A. Haught, Holy Horrors: An Illustrated History of Religious Murder and Madness
