Adherents Quotes

As with the Christian religion, the worst advertisement for socialism is it's adherents Picture Quote #1

The more fantastic an ideology or theology, the more fanatic its adherents Picture Quote #1

We should all oppose - as Darwin did - views manifestly in conflict with the evidence, such as creationism... But we shouldn’t set up this debate as ‘religion v science’ instead we should strive for peaceful coexistence with at least the less dogmatic strands of mainstream religions, which number many excellent scientists among their adherents Picture Quote #1

Religion grants its adherents malign, intoxicating and morally corrosive sensations. Destroying intellectual freedom is always evil, but only religion makes doing evil feel quite so good Picture Quote #1

Every powerful movement has had its philosophy which has gripped the mind, fired the imagination and captured the devotion of its adherents Picture Quote #1

There is a tradition of opposition between adherents of induction and of deduction. In my view it would be just as sensible for the two ends of a worm to quarrel Picture Quote #1

You should always take a religion at its best and not at its worst, from its highest teachings and not from the lowest practices of some of its adherents Picture Quote #1

Whatever sympathy I feel towards religions, whatever admiration for some of their adherents, whatever historical or biological necessity I see in them, whatever metaphorical truth, I cannot accept them as credible explanations of reality; and they are incredible to me in proportion to the degree that they require my belief in positive human attributes and intervenient powers in their divinities Picture Quote #1

All religion may be centered around a generally good idea, however, this has not stopped its adherents from acting like bastards Picture Quote #1

I judge a religion as being good or bad based on whether its adherents become better people as a result of practicing it Picture Quote #1

Atheists often denounce Christianity as harsh and negative. But in reality it offers a much more positive view of the human person than any competing religion or worldview. It is so appealing that adherents of other worldviews keep free-loading the parts they like best Picture Quote #1

State ownership! It leads only to absurd and monstrous conclusions; state ownership means state monopoly, concentrated in the hands of one party and its adherents, and that state brings only ruin and bankruptcy to all Picture Quote #1

The essence of a religion can be discovered by asking its adherents one question: ‘What, to your mind, was the seminal moment in the history of the world?’ Picture Quote #1

One key and defining attribute of God that does not appear in any other world religion or system is the biblical use of the term Father. Over 70 times in the New Testament alone, God is described as Father to His children. No major world religion describes the relationship between its creator and its adherents in terms of a father Picture Quote #1

As with the Christian religion, the worst advertisement for Socialism is its adherents Picture Quote #1

I can tell you, dearest friend, that if it became known how much friendship, love and a world of human and spiritual references I have smuggled into these three movements, the adherents of programme music - should there be any left - would go mad with joy Picture Quote #1

Much of what Tea Party candidates claimed about the world and the global economy during the 2010 elections would have earned their adherents a well-deserved F in any freshman economics (or earth science) class Picture Quote #1

Every new form of liberation is destined to eventually become another form of enslavement for most of its adherents Picture Quote #1

One of the world’s great religions Â- which has more than 1.4 billion adherents Â- somehow sanctions genocide, planned genocide, as part of its religious doctrine Picture Quote #1

Idiosyncratic belief systems which are shared by only a few adherents are likely to be regarded as delusional. Belief systems which may be just as irrational but which are shared by millions are called world religions Picture Quote #1

Wisdom stands at the turn in the road and calls upon us publicly, but we consider it false and despise its adherents Picture Quote #1

Much of what Tea Party candidates claimed about the world and the global economy during the 2010 elections would have earned their adherents a well - deserved F in any freshman economics (or Earth science) class Picture Quote #1

I mean by intellectual integrity the habit of deciding vexed questions in accordance with the evidence, or of leaving them undecided where the evidence is inconclusive. This virtue, though it is underestimated by almost all adherents of any system of dogma, is to my mind of the very greatest social importance and far more likely to benefit the world than Christianity or any other system of organized beliefs Picture Quote #1

Adherents of the new religious right reject the separation of politics and religion, but they bring no spiritual insights to politics Picture Quote #1

Chess for me is not a game, but an art. Yes, and I take upon myself all those responsibilities which an art imposes on its adherents Picture Quote #1

No democracy has ever long survived the failure of its adherents to be ready to die for it. My own conviction is this, the people must either go on or go under Picture Quote #1

It is an ideology born out of hatred and its adherents belong to no religion, culture or civilisation Picture Quote #1

Algebraic geometry seems to have acquired the reputation of being esoteric, exclusive, and very abstract, with adherents who are secretly plotting to take over all the rest of mathematics. In one respect this last point is accurate Picture Quote #1

When cowardice becomes a fashion its adherents are without number, and it masquerades as forbearance, reasonableness and whatnot Picture Quote #1

Art without accomplishment becomes a form of faith, sustained more by the intensity of its common practice than by the pleasure it gives to its adherents in private Picture Quote #1
