“If you believe that the world is going to come to an end – and perhaps any day now – does it not drain one’s motivation to improve life on earth while we’re here?”

Faith means the purposeful suspension of critical thinking. It’s nothing to be admired.

We need more people speaking out. This country is not overrun with rebels and free thinkers. It’s overrun with sheep and conformists.

If you want to get rich with a tax free enterprise that sells nothing, start a church.

The whole dating ritual was different when I was a kid. Girls got pinned, not nailed.

The difference between the three Abrahamic religions: Christianity – mumbling to the ceiling, Judaism – mumbling to the wall, Islam – mumbling to the floor.

Talk to women who’ve ever dated an Arab man. The results are not good.

Like it or not, we’re still a primitive tribe ruled by fears, superstition and misinformation.

If anti-gay stuff is always coming out of your mouth, something very gay is probably going in.

What is it with conservatives? Seriously, I’m not trying to be partisan but it seems like if they’re anti-illegal alien, they have illegal aliens working for them. If they’re anti-gay, they turn out to be gay. If they’re super Christian, they’re a witch.

Idiots must stop claiming that atheism is a religion. Religion is defined as the belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power. And atheism is… precisely not that. Atheism is a religion like abstinence is a sex position.

I feel terrible for a Palestinian child who dies. But, if it’s your father, your brother or your uncle who was firing those rockets into Israel, whose fault is it really? Do you really expect the Israelis not to retaliate?

Men are only as loyal as their options.

I think what’s dangerous is the idea that someone can wash away your sins.

The plain fact is: religion must die for mankind to live.

That’s what’s so great about the Internet. It allows pompous blow-hards to connect with other pompous blow-hards in a vast circle-jerk of pomposity.

I’m for the death penalty, I’m pro-abortion, I’m pro-assisted suicide, I’m pro-regular suicide. Anything that’ll get the traffic moving.

Through Gandhi and my own life experience, I have learned about nonviolence. I believe that human life is a very special gift from God, and that no one has a right to take that away in any cause, however just. I am convinced that nonviolence is more powerful than violence.

I don’t believe in censorship.

Everybody believes in something and everybody, by virtue of the fact that they believe in something, uses that something to support their own existence.

We believe that unions have always been about much more than the industries in which they operate. The fight is never about grapes or lettuce, It is always about people.

You create the results in life that you believe you deserve.

Your opinion of me does not equal my self-worth.

We believe slowly when belief brings pain.

Man is a rational animal. He can think up a reason for anything he wants to believe.
