I think one of the things you and I have to learn is that we have to live without the consolation of belonging to a Church.... Of one thing I am certain. The religion of the future will have to be extremely ascetic, and by that I don't mean just going without food and drink Picture Quote #1

The Christian religion is only for one who needs infinite help, therefore only for one who feels an infinite need. The whole planet cannot be in greater anguish than a single soul.

There is a holy, mistaken zeal in politics, as well as in religion. By persuading others, we convince ourselves Picture Quote #1

The world would be astonished if it knew how great a proportion of it's brightest ornaments, of those distinguished even in popular estimation for wisdom and virtue, are complete sceptics in religion Picture Quote #1

The time appears to me to have come when it is the duty of all to make their dissent from religion known Picture Quote #1

The United States is no more a Christian nation because most of it's citizens are Christians than it is a 'white' nation because most of it's citizens are white. We are Americans because we practice democracy and believe in republican government, not because we practice revealed religion and believe in Bible-based government Picture Quote #1

The principle itself of dogmatic religion, dogmatic morality, dogmatic philosophy, is what requires to be booted out; not any particular manifestation of that principle Picture Quote #1

On religion in particular, the time appears to me to have come, when it is a duty of all who, being qualified in point of knowledge, have, on mature consideration, satisfied themselves that the current opinions are not only false, but hurtful, to make their dissent known Picture Quote #1

Even though you can't expect to defeat the absurdity of the world, you must make that attempt. That's morality, that's religion. That's art. That's life Picture Quote #1

The] men of the technostructure are the new and universal priesthood. Their religion is business success; their test of virtue is growth and profit. Their bible is the computer printout; their communion bench is the committee room Picture Quote #1
