OK my brief disclamer: I do not agree with all the quotes I post, I just find them interesting. I love the athiest quotes, because it gives me a perspective on athiests in their own words. Want to shut them up read the whole bible and don't become an athiest.
The young man knows the rules, but the old man knows the exceptions. ~ Oliver Wendell Holmes
Either the Bible will keep you away from sin, or sin will keep you away from the Bible I am convinced that a downgrading in priority of . . . prayer and biblical meditation is a major cause of weakness in many Christian communities. . . . Bible study demands pondering deeply on a short passage, like a cow chewing her cud. It is better to read a little and ponder a lot than to read a lot and ponder a little. ~ Denis Parsons Burkitt (1911-1993)
Religion and government will both exist in greater purity, the less they are mixed together. ~ James Madison
It is error alone which needs the support of government. Truth can stand by itself. ~ Thomas Jefferson
If you have no Bible, you have no way to live. Those who either don't have the Bible or choose to curse the Bible are lost. They have nothing to guide them to redemption. I feel sorry for them. ~ Rosa Parks
Properly read, the Bible is the most potent force for atheism ever conceived. ~ attributed to Isaac Asimov
Take some time and put the Bible on your summer reading list. Try and stick with it cover to cover. Not because it teaches history; it doesn't. Read it because you'll see for yourself what the Bible is all about...it sure isn't great litterature. If it was published as fiction, no reviewer would give it a passing grade. There are a few vivid scenes and quotable phrases, but...there's no plot. No structure. There's a tremendous amount of filler and the characters are...painfully one-dimensional. Whatever you do, don't read the Bible for a moral code. It applicates prejudice, cruelty, superstition and murder. Read it because...we need more atheists—and nothing will get you there faster than reading the damn Bible. ~ Penn Jillette
We're not non-believers. We do believe in a lot of things, but they come from other experiences and other encounters, not necessarily a book. ~ Hemant Mehta (ebay atheist)
I think atheists are a lot more confident than Christians in their own abilities to make things happen. ~ Hemant Mehta (ebay atheist)
