Religion Quotes

I do not think that the real reason why people accept religion has anything to do with argumentation. They accept religion on emotional grounds Picture Quote #1

Every religion contains, in varying degrees, elements of the soft and the hard. For the sake of world peace, dialogue within religions and among them must strengthen the softer aspects Picture Quote #1

True wisdom is free of the dramas of culture or religion and should bring us only a sense of peace and happiness Picture Quote #1

We acquire both the language and religious concepts from our immediate culture – at the same time. A child cannot discriminate between useful survival information and the emotional and psychological manipulations of religion. Once infected, these ideas are deeply embedded and almost impossible to change Picture Quote #1

This whole religion revolves around knowing the truth and acting by it, and action must be accompanied by patience Picture Quote #1

The opinions that are held with passion are always those for which no good ground exists; indeed the passion is the measure of the holders lack of rational conviction. Opinions in politics and religion are almost always held passionately Picture Quote #1

I think that there are many different ways of getting and staying sober. Like religion, I just don’t think that one way is the only way Picture Quote #1

In catholisism we have an entire religion based on a woman who really stuck to her story Picture Quote #1

Every religion, in my opinion, has something to bring, and I think we all learn from everyone that there’s no right, perfect way to look at something Picture Quote #1

I’ve always believed that who a reporter votes for, what religion they are, who they love, should not be something they have to discuss publicly Picture Quote #1

Man must learn to know the universe precisely as it is, or he cannot successfully find his place in it. A man should therefore use his reasoning faculty in all matters involving truth, and especially as concerning his religion. He must learn to distinguish between truth and error Picture Quote #1

The main thing for inner contentment is to be in a state of grace. And there is an artistic state of grace, for art is a kind of religion Picture Quote #1

In the past, most wars were motivated by the idea of nationhood. Today, however, wars are incited above all using religion as an excuse Picture Quote #1

I like the confusion you get between science and religion … that’s where belief lies and art as well Picture Quote #1

Morality, taken as apart from religion, is but another name for decency in sin. It is just that negative species of virtue which consists in not doing what is scandalously depraved and wicked. But there is no heart of holy principle in it, any more than there is in the grosser sin Picture Quote #1

It is said that peace is the basic tenet of all religion. Yet it is in the name of religion that there has been so much disturbance, bloodshed and persecution. It is indeed a pity that even at the close of the twentieth century we’ve had to witness such atrocities because of religion. Flying the flag of religion has always proved the easiest way to crush to nothingness human beings as well as the spirit of humanity Picture Quote #1

Excessive concern with religion seems to me a last resort for people who have been exhausted by life Picture Quote #1

The first expression of religion was the dance, and the first motive of the dance was religion Picture Quote #1

The progress of mankind is due exclusively to the progress of natural sciences, not to morals, religion or philosophy Picture Quote #1

In the name of religion, one tortures, persecutes, builds pyres. In the guise of ideologies, one massacres, tortures and kills. In the name of justice one punishes... in the name of love of one’s country or of one’s race hates other countries, despises them, massacres them. In the name of equality and brotherhood there is suppression and torture. There is nothing in common between the means and the end, the means go far beyond the end... ideologies and religion... are the alibis of the means Picture Quote #1

We must embrace the power of faith, but we must never confuse politics and piety. For me, may I say that it is against my religion to impose my religion Picture Quote #1

Every social trait labelled masculine or feminine is in truth a human trait. It is our human right to develop and contribute our talents whatever our race, sex, religion, ancestry, age. Human rights are indivisible! Picture Quote #1

The real platform for religion is based on the concepts of compassion, respect and consideration, not just for human beings, but for all forms of life Picture Quote #1

When confronted with the order and beauty of the universe and the strange coincidences of nature, it’s very tempting to take the leap of faith from science into religion. I am sure many physicists want to. I only wish they would admit it Picture Quote #1

The highest religion is to rise to universal brother hood; aye to consider all creatures your equals Picture Quote #1

For most of recorded history, parental violence against children and men’s violence against wives was explicitly or implicitly condoned. Those who had the power to prevent and/or punish this violence through religion, law, or custom, openly or tacitly approved it..... The reason violence against women and children is finally out in the open is that activists have brought it to global attention Picture Quote #1

Science is simply a logical process of discovering truths about the world we live in; the illusion is that science is some sort of a set of strange rules, a religion that speaks algebra or a magical group of incantations and spells Picture Quote #1

I think... that philosophy has the duty of pointing out the falsity of outworn religious ideas, however estimable they may be as a form of art. We cannot act as if all religion were poetry while the greater part of it still functions in its ancient guise of illicit science and backward morals Picture Quote #1

Some people say that we here have no freedom of religion,... In reality, the people in that country are the ones who were forced to embrace a religion Picture Quote #1

Hate crimes based on sexual orientation are among the three top reported hate crimes after race and religion,... Our laws should not ignore that reality Picture Quote #1
