Freethought Quotes

  • “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.
