Freethought Quotes

  • “It is largely because the free-thinkers, as a school, have hardly made up their minds whether they want to be more optimist or more pessimist than Christianity that their small but sincere movement has failed. For the duel is deadly; and any agnostic who wishes to be anything more than a Nihilist must sympathize with one version of nature or the other.”
    by GK Chesterton
  • “Religion is based . . . mainly on fear . . . fear of the mysterious, fear
    of defeat, fear of death. Fear is the parent of cruelty, and therefore it
    is no wonder if cruelty and religion have gone hand in hand. . . . My own
    view on religion is that of Lucretius. I regard it as a disease born of
    fear and as a source of untold misery to the human race.”
    by H.L. Mencken
    Holy Horrors
  • “I believe in Spinoza's god who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists, not in a god who concerns himself with the fates and actions of human beings.”
    by Albert Einstein
