I do not pretend to be able to prove that there is no God. I equally cannot prove that Satan is a fiction. The Christian god may exist; so may the gods of Olympus, or of ancient Egypt, or of Babylon. But no one of these hypotheses is more probable than any other: they lie outside the region of even probable knowledge, and therefore there is no reason to consider any of them.

Tell a devout Christian that his wife is cheating on him, or that frozen yogurt can make a man invisible, and he is likely to require as much evidence as anyone else, and to be persuaded only to the extent that you give it. Tell him that the book he keeps by his bed was written by an invisible deity who will punish him with fire for eternity if he fails to accept its every incredible claim about the universe, and he seems to require no evidence what so ever.

If a man would follow, today, the teachings of the Old Testament, he would be a criminal. If he would follow strictly the teachings of the New, he would be insane.

Robert G. Ingersoll

God is an ever receding pocket of scientific ignorance.

The easy confidence with which I know another man`s religion is folly teaches me to suspect that my own is also.

Mark Twain

The Bible is a wonderful source of inspiration for those who don't understand it.

George Santayana

Who is more humble? The scientist who looks at the universe with an open mind and accepts whatever the universe has to teach us, or somebody who says "Everything in this book must be considered the literal truth and never mind the fallibility of all the human beings involved in the writing of this book."?

Carl Sagan

We all ought to understand we`re on our own. Believing in Santa Claus doesn`t do kids any harm for a few years but it isn`t smart for them to continue waiting all their lives for him to come down the chimney with something wonderful. Santa Claus and God are cousins.
