Freethought Quotes

  • “There was a time when I believed in the story and the scheme of salvation, so far as I could understand it, just as I believed there was a Devil.... Suddenly the light broke through to me and I knew this God was a lie.... For indeed it is a silly story, and each generation nowadays swallows it with greater difficulty.... Why do people go on pretending about this Christianity?”
    by H.G. Wells
  • “Heaven: The Coney Island of the Christian imagination.”
    by Elbert Hubbard
  • “If there is a god, atheism must seem to him as less of an insult than religion.”
    by Edmond and Jules de Goncourt
