Freethought Quotes

  • “Humanists are devoted to the betterment of the world, and live out these values through various activities in their local communities. So when I think about interfaith work, I realize that humanist communities often have a greater impact when partnering with their neighboring faith communities. I have seen this play out in community gardens and food justice campaigns, the Occupy movement, as well as with Black Lives Matter. While humanists may not share a philosophical view with their religious counterparts, there exist enough common values, where much can be gained through collaboration.”
    by Vanessa Gomez Brake, Associate Dean of Religious Life, University of Southern California

  • “No one can believe in a good God if they have sat at the bedside of a dying child.”
    by Bertrand Russell
  • “To explain the unknown by the known is a logical procedure;
    To explain the known by the unknown is a form of theological lunacy.”
    by David Brooks
