It turns out that the word atheism means much less than I had thought. It is merely the lack of theism.

If the Prodigal Son's a parable, and if Adam and Eve are metaphors, then maybe God is just figure of speech.

The very concept of sin comes from the Bible. Christianity offers to solve a problem of its own making! Would you be thankful to a person who cut you with a knife in order to sell you a bandage?

I am an atheist because there is no evidence for the existence of God. That should be all that needs to be said about it: no evidence, no belief.

Insanity is believing your hallucinations are real. Religion is believing that other peoples' hallucinations are real.

All you have to do is walk into any children's hospital and you know there is no God. Prayer doesn't make any difference. Those people pray for their beloved children to live and they die.

People are always asking, "What's the purpose of life?" That's easy. Relieve suffering. Create beauty. Make gardens.

If the answers to prayer are merely what God wills all along, then why pray?

I'm proud to be an atheist - it helps me stand for so much more and fall for so much less.

Faith is a cop-out. If the only way you can accept an assertion is by faith, then you are conceding that it can't be taken on its own merits. It is intellectual bankruptcy.

How happy can you be when you think every action and thought is being monitored by a judgmental ghost ?

Is there any riches like redemption?

I cannot be made into the commentator for the unspoken black masses.

Everyday I strive to, at least, recognise my short-comings and the things I have to do to be the best person that I can possibly be.

Jesus Christ, in His infinite love, has become what we are, in order that He may make us entirely what He is.

Fear and lies fester in darkness. The truth may wound, but it cuts clean.

The obligation to amuse and instruct myself was entirely my own, and people who didn't know that were childish people, to be avoided if possible. Certainly not to be trusted.

oil paints...the look of licked lips.

If you can intuit well, you're essentially meeting the future faster.

The station put us on staff at $35 a week... and I mean every week.

If you stumble at mere believability, what are you living for? Isn't love hard to believe?
