Freethought Quotes

  • “I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute, where no Catholic prelate would tell the president (should he be Catholic) how to act, and no Protestant minister would tell his parishioners for whom to vote; where no church or church school is granted any public funds or political preference; and where no man is denied public office merely because his religion differs from the president who might appoint him or the people who might elect him.”
    by John F. Kennedy, Democratic presidential candidate, addressing the Greater Houston Ministerial Association on 9/12/60

  • “The Humanist view of life is progressive and optimistic, in awe of human potential, living without fear of judgement and death, finding enough purpose and meaning in life, love and leaving a good legacy.”
    by Polly Toynbee
  • “As my ancestors are free from slavery, I am free from the slavery of religion.

    I'm an atheist, and Christianity appears to me to be the most absurd imposture of all the religions, and I'm puzzled that so many people can't see through a religion that encourages irresponsibility and bigotry.

    If we had put the energy on earth and on people that we put on mythology and on Jesus Christ, we wouldn't have any hunger or homelessness.

    They say the streets are going to be beautiful in Heaven. Well, I'm trying to make the streets beautiful here . . . . When it's clean and beautiful, I think America is heaven. And some people are hell.
