“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.”
Anon.
“Faith means to consciously and willfully refuse to examine the facts.”
David Morris
“Secular schools can never be tolerated because such schools have no religious instruction, and a general moral instruction without a religious foundation is built on air; consequently, all character training and religion must be derived from faith… we need believing people.”
Adolf Hitler1889 – 1945
“Millions of innocent men, women, and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined, imprisoned; yet we have not advanced one inch towards uniformity. What has been the effect of coercion? To make one half the world fools and the other half hypocrites. To support roguery and error all over the earth.”
Thomas Jefferson1743 – 1826
“God and patriotism are an explosive mixture.”
Nicolas Sartorius
