Freethought Quotes

  • “Religion is the last cultural barrier to gender equity.”
    by Karen L. Garst
    Women Beyond Belief: Discovering Life Without Religion
  • “Religion's greatest "sin" lies in displacing human endeavor, thought, time, resources and efforts from this world, our only world, in order to exalt a highly unlikely, unknowable, unseeable, unprovable and unbelievable pretend afterworld. The only afterlife that ought to concern us is leaving our descendants (along with the other animals and life we share our planet with) a secure and pleasant future.”
    by Annie Laurie Gaylor
  • “We needn’t resort to myth to get that spine-chilling thrill of being part of something grander than ourselves. Our vast universe provides us with enough profound and beautiful truths to live a spiritually fulfilling life.”
    by Sasha Sagan
