Atheist QOTD

“Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?”

Douglas Adams1952 – 2001

“'God's plan' is often a front for men's plans and a cover for inadequacy, ignorance, and evil.”

Mary Daly

“If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence.”

Bertrand Russell1872 – 1970

“Nothing fails like prayer.”

Robert G. Ingersoll1833 – 1899

“Scientific answers are not final, but progressively improved by investigation. Religious answers are dogmatic and purportedly final, based on a mishmash of tradition, myth, prejudice and ignorance – among other things.”
