edit data

Paulo Bittencourt, author of the books “Liberated from Religion” and “Wasting Time on God”, was born in Paraná, Brazil, spent his childhood in Rio de Janeiro and studied Theology in São Paulo. Close to becoming a pastor, he had doubts, dropped out of college, ventured through Europe and ended up settling in Austria. The book “Ethics”, by Bento de Espinosa (Baruch Spinoza), strengthened his skepticism and consolidated him as a freethinker. Paulo Bitencourt dedicates his life to helping people liberate themselves from religion.

“I don’t want to believe, I want to know.”
— Paulo Bittencourt

Paulo Bitencourt liked a quote “The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. The ride goes up and down, around and around, it has thrills and chills, and it's very brightly colored, and it's very loud, and it's fun for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, "Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say, "Hey, don't worry; don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride." And we … kill those people. "Shut him up! I've got a lot invested in this ride, shut him up! Look at my furrows of worry, look at my big bank account, and my family. This has to be real." It's just a ride. But we always kill the good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok … But it doesn't matter, because it's just a ride. And we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no ...more Bill Hicks
