Some stuff I added to my list of favorite quotes. It's about god bullshit.

It is sad that in this great age of science people still believe in God. There are no scientific theories that have the existence of a supernatural deity as a working hypothesis. Where is it, why doesn’t it show itself?

The vicious and violent spread of Christianity coincides with Europeans' bloodthirsty colonialism. That Christianity is popularly viewed as a beacon for morality shows the extent to which Westerners have whitewashed their thuggish history.

It seems to me that the worst thing about God is all the killing that is done in his name.

As an atheist, I have been convinced that God does exist. Now how is that for a contradiction? But where does this God exist? Why, in the fanciful imagination of the believer, that's where.

I am an atheist, 91 years old, and have never felt the need for a god or gods to live what is considered a moral life.
