Freethought Quotes

  • “Owners of dogs will have noticed that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they will think you are god. Whereas owners of cats are compelled to realize that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they draw the conclusion that they are gods.”
    by Christopher Hitchens

  • “Leaving your religion is much like deciding to change your primary language:
    You need a really good reason to do it.
    Friends and family may wonder what's wrong with you.
    It's not something you do overnight.
    It's crucial to find others who speak the new language.”
    by Tim Sledge
    Goodbye Jesus: An Evangelical Preacher's Journey Beyond Faith
