I’m a strong opponent of all religious belief.(Conversations pg 96)

One of the misconceptions about atheism is that it somehow means someone denies the possibility of a deity. In all actuality, it simply means you don’t believe it to be the case — a point...

Many of the innovations in science and philosophy have come from unbelievers, some of whom died for their ‘unbeliefs.’ Without unbelief, we might well be living in the Dark Ages or at least in the...

On the revelation that there are no gods or afterlife:-“I do not ‘like’ the truth any more than you Avil, or anyone. I wrestled with it for a long time, for a while I was...

People will say,”there’s heaven and hell”, and they take it so serious that they look so sorrowful with penitence. I would rather ask them to show me the route that leads to heaven or hell.

Atheism is not a philosophy; it is not even a view of the world; it is simply an admission of the obvious. In fact, ‘atheism’ is a term that should not even exist. No one...

I should like to preface my remarks with a personal statement in order that my later remarks will not be misunderstood. I consider myself an atheist.

My aim is to argue that the universe can come into existence without intervention, and that there is no need to invoke the idea of a Supreme Being in one of its numerous manifestations.

For a God that created everything, it is mystifying why he created so much competition.

It is odd that the Bible says, ‘God created man,’ whereas it is the other way round: man has created God. It is odd that the Bible says, ‘The body is mortal, the soul is...

The centre of me is always and eternally in terrible pain … A searching for something beyond what the world contains, something transfiguring and infinite.

At present there is not a single credible established religion in the world.

Now I have to say I’m a complete atheist, I have no religious views myself and no spiritual views, except very watered down humanistic spiritual views, and consciousness is just a fact of life, it’s...

[Letter to his wife, Natalia Sedova]In addition to the happiness of being a fighter for the cause of socialism, fate gave me the happiness of being her husband. During the almost forty years of our...

The depressed person is a radical, sullen atheist.

I too entered the Lager as a nonbeliever, and as a nonbeliever I was liberated and have lived to this day.

I simply would not accede to being forced into this, and would frequently be kept out of classes because of irreverent comments and mocking this religious stuff. Frankly, it stayed with me to this day....

I became aware of Jews in my early teens, as I started to pick up the signals from the Christian church. Not that I was Christian – I’d been an atheist since I was five....

I am so sorry to hear of Asher’s passing. I will miss his scientific insight and advice, but even more his humor and stubborn integrity. I remember when one of his colleagues complained about Asher’s...

I think that God that we have created and allowed to shape our culture through, essentially Christian theology is a pretty villainous creature. I think that one of the things that male patriarchal figure has...

I cattolici mi rendono nervoso perché sono sleali. E i protestanti? domandò ridendo, quelli mi fanno star male con quel loro pasticciare intorno alla coscienza. E gli atei? rideva ancora. Quelli mi annoiano perché parlano...

Among leaders who have made the greatest impact through ages, I would consider Muhammad before Jesus Christ.

I do not want to be labeled as an atheist; I do hate religions’ stupidity and insanity, but there is nothing else I can be called.

Just kidding, it was Jimmy’s cat, I don’t know why.”We have no reason to believe that SnickerDoodle’s are real. Without SnickerDoodles being established as possible causes to drinks being knocked down, then there is no...

If you can remain as an atheist in a falling plane, then it means you are a real atheist!

The denial of Christ has less to do with facts and more to do with the bent of what a person is prejudiced to conclude.

If Jesus Christ were to come today, people would not even crucify him. They would ask him to dinner, and hear what he had to say, and make fun of it.

I am part of a minority that is deeply misunderstood. People have very confused ideas about us. Many are frightened of us. I’ve even heard it said that many people wouldn’t want their daughters or...

The final word should not be exclusively on the side of an atheist government.

He claimed to be an atheist, but he always used religious symbolism…

I don’t claim to know an over-arching ‘Meaning of Life,’ but I do operate under the understanding that life should not be lived under the pretense that it is simply a test propagated by an...

I don’t have any relationship with God and I’ve never wanted it. I don’t believe in fate or in any superior entity; if a plane crashes and people die, it’s not because Heaven said so.

Interesting Avil, the priests and the acolytes of the various religions and temples of Torea build their whole lives on a lie. At first, as children they believe it. Maybe as they grow older and...

A God who could make good children as easily a bad, yet preferred to make bad ones; who could have made every one of them happy, yet never made a single happy one; who made...

When I finally applied logic to Religion that was when I quit paying after life insurance and quit going

The seriousness of throwing over hell whilst still clinging to the Atonement is obvious. If there is no punishment for sin there can be no self-forgiveness for it. If Christ paid our score, and if...

Well it’s fairly straightforward: there isn’t one [a god]. And there’s no evidence for one, no reason to believe that there is one, and so I don’t believe that there is one. And I think...

By the time I had complete my 22nd year, I was a new man – an atheist.

Atheism is a religion of egoism….they hate the name “God” so much that they INSIST that whatever CAUSED BigBang should not be called anything else except Bigbang.

For those who talks about the perfection of god in making human…..Its his success after billion years of experiments out of millions of other useless creatures

I’m an atheist, and a militant atheist when religion starts impacting on legislation.

I am an atheist and that’s it. I believe there’s nothing we can know except that we should be kind to each other and do what we can for other people.

I am an atheist, and if an atheist and a pope think the same things, there must be something true. It’s that simple!

I’ve never known a tranquil atheist. Don’t they always look like they just sat on a tack?

…I am not, however, militant in my atheism. The great English theoretical physicist Paul Dirac is a militant atheist. I suppose he is interested in arguing about the existence of God. I am not. It...

Until every soul is freely permitted to investigate every book, and creed, and dogma for itself, the world cannot be free. Mankind will be enslaved until there is mental grandeur enough to allow each man...
