“I like the relaxed way in which the Japanese approach religion. I think of myself as basically a moral person, but I'm definitely not religious, and I'm very tired of the preachiness and obsession with other people's behavior characteristic of many religious people in the United States. As far as I could tell, there's nothing preachy about Buddhism. I was in a lot of temples, and I still don't know what Buddhists believe, except that at one point Kunio said 'If you do bad things, you will be reborn as an ox.'

This makes as much sense to me as anything I ever heard from, for example, the Reverend Pat Robertson.”

“Theism, as religious people typically hold it, does not merely state that some entity created the universe, but that the universe was created specifically with humans in mind as the most important part of creation. If we have any understanding at all of how an intelligent agent capable of creating the material universe would act if it had such an intention, we would say it would not create the huge structure we see, most of it completely irrelevant for life on Earth, with the Earth in such a seemingly random location, and with humans appearing only after a long and rather random course of evolution.”
― Tim Maudlin

“Suggesting I hate people with religion because I hate religion is like suggesting I hate people with cancer because I hate cancer.”
― Ricky Gervais

“I used to think religious people were kinder, nicer, had better characters, but I found out they're just like everybody else, just people. Some are better, some are worse. There are sincere ones . . . but also the opposite . . .”

“People whom live in a world dominated by science and technology are losing belief in God and turning away from religion. Science eliminated the traditions that formerly made living an art form including the rain celebration of spring and traditional harvest festivals.”

“Dr. Patrick F. Fagan wrote: β€œThe indispensable building block upon which the fortunes of the economy depends [is] the married-parent householdβ€”especially the child-rich family that worships weekly. …Every marriage creates a new household, an independent economic unit that generates income, spends, saves, and invests.”

“Some religious People claim to be Holy and Godly without sin yet no amount of self-justification will work before God because we have all sinned”
― Shaila Touchton

“Self-righteous Religious people focus more on their goodness and moral superiority than the holiness of God.”
― Shaila Touchton

“The feeling of an overplus of meaning in reality, a sense that the world cannot at all be accounted for in its own terms, is a profound bond and understanding between and among religious people.”

“The godly are God's worst advocates.”

“Religions are like carwashes. The car may look nice and shiny on the outside, but inside it remains messy and unclean. Why else do you think religious people rape, torture, and murder in the name of their religion?”
― Jack Freestone

“The lack of understanding and some consensus about the question of God shows the fanaticism of both religious people and atheists who have become atheists more because of hate toward religion than because of β€œhatredβ€� toward God. Therefore, they cannot understand the difference between God and religion. Curt GΓΆdel (1906β€�1978) noted, '[I am] against religions but not against religion.' Without intermediaries and 'holy books,' real religion is the desire to reconnect (religio) to the Ultimate Source.”
