 If I were not an atheist, I think I would have to be a Catholic because if it wasn't the forces of natural selection that designed fish, It must have been an Italian. ~ Douglas Adams
I cannot conceive of a God who rewards and punishes his creatures, or has a will of the type of which we are conscious ourselves. ~ Albert Einstein
I'm a believer. I don't go to church. I don't belong to any particular religion, but I do believe in God. I couldn't write what I write about and be creative without a certain form of belief. ~ Nick Cave
 There's no such thing as a soul. It's just something they made up to scare kids, like the boogeyman or Michael Jackson. ~ Bart Simpson
Where governments lie, God does not lie. Where governments change, God does not change. But let me leave you with one more thing. Governments fail. The government in this text comprised of Caesar, Cornelius, Pontius Pilate - the Roman government failed. The British government used to rule from East to West. The British government had a Union Jack. She colonized Kenya, Ghana, Nigeria, Jamaica, Barbados, Trinidad and Hong Kong.
Her navies ruled the seven seas all the way down to the tip of Argentina in the Falklands, but the British government failed. The Russian government failed. The Japanese government failed. The German government failed. And the United States of America government, when it came to treating her citizens of Indian descent fairly, she failed. She put them on reservations. When it came to treating her citizens of Japanese descent fairly, she failed. She put them in internment prison camps. When it came to treating citizens of African descent fairly, America failed. She put them in chains. ~ Reverend Jeremiah Wright
When you start confusing God and government, your allegiances to government - a particular government and not to God, that you're in serious trouble because governments fail people. ~ Reverend Jeremiah Wright
