Islamic Theologian: It's Likely
the Prophet Muhammad Never Existed
“With respect to public acknowledgment of religious belief, it is entirely clear from our nation's historical
practices that the Establishment Clause permits this disregard of polytheists and believers in unconcerned
deities, just as it permits the disregard of devout atheists.”
- Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia,
06/2005
“We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus, and nonbelievers.”
- President Barack Obama,
in his Inaugural Address
“Democracy demands that the religiously motivated translate their concerns into universal, rather than
religion-specific, values. It requires that their proposals be subject to argument, and amenable to reason.
I may be opposed to abortion for religious reasons, but if I seek to pass a law banning the practice, I cannot
simply point to the teachings of my church or evoke God's will. I have to explain why abortion violates some
principle that is accessible to people of all faiths, including those with no faith at all.”
- Sen. Barack Obama, 6/28/06
“The separation of church and state is critical and has caused our democracy and religious practices to thrive.”
- Sen. Barack Obama, Barack Obama on Faith
“I think it's time that we join a serious debate about how to reconcile faith with our modern, pluralistic democracy.”
- Sen. Barack Obama, Call
to Renewal Keynote Address, 6/28/2006
Gods don't kill people; people with gods kill people!
Faith does not give you the answers, it just stops you asking the questions.
Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you
symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil
force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat
from a magical tree. — unknown
"Imagine a world in which generations of human beings come to believe that certain films were made by
God or that specific software was coded by him. Imagine a future in which millions of our descendants
murder each other over rival interpretations of Star Wars or Windows 98. Could anything — anything —
be more ridiculous? And yet, this would be no more ridiculous than the world we are living in."
— Sam Harris, The End of Faith
"Religion is the process of unconscious wish fulfillment, where, for certain people, if the process
did not take place it would put them in self-danger of coming to mental harm, being unable to cope
with the idea of a godless, purposeless life."
— Sigmund Freud
Pope Benedict XVI stated in May, 2007 that the Church had not imposed itself on the indigenous peoples of the
Americas. He said that the natives had welcomed the arrival of European priests at the time
of the conquest as they were "silently longing" for Christianity. [Right, and rape
victims "silently long" for rape.]
