Freethought Quotes

  • “What happens entirely in my head, including my thoughts and beliefs, is nobody’s business but my own. But when I put thoughts or beliefs into action, I have to consider the impact on others, especially those whose thoughts and beliefs differ from my own.”
    by Dale McGowan
    In Faith and In Doubt: How Religious Believers and Nonbelievers Can Create Strong Marriages and Loving Families
  • “The great religious ages were notable for their indifference to human rights ... not only for acquiescence in poverty, inequality, exploitation and oppression, but also for enthusiastic justifications for slavery, persecution, abandonment of small children, torture, and genocide.... Moreover, religion enshrined hierarchy, authority, and inequality.... It was the age of equality that brought about the disappearance of such religious appurtenances as the auto-da-fe and burning at the stake. ”
    by Arthur Schlesinger Jr.
  • “In order for tomorrow to move in an enlightened direction, humanists and nontheists of all stripes must unite coalitions on every matter facing us today. As Frederick Douglass said: "Power concedes nothing without a demand.”
