"Consider
for a moment this notion that you should respect other people’s beliefs. Where
else in our discourse do we encounter this? I mean, when was the last time
anyone in this room was admonished to respect another person’s beliefs about
history, or biology, or physics? We do not respect people’s beliefs; we
evaluate their reasons."
Sam
Harris (1967- )
"Man will
never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last
priest."
Denis Diderot (1713-1784)
"I contend
we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you
understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why
I dismiss yours.
Stephen F. Roberts

Highness, I have no need of this hypothesis."
