Christopher Hitchens
“I have met some highly intelligent believers, but history has no record to say that [s]he knew or understood the mind of god. Yet this is precisely the qualification which the godly must claim—so modestly and so humbly—to possess. It is time to withdraw our 'respect' from such fantastic claims, all of them aimed at the exertion of power over other humans in the real and material world.”
Christopher Hitchens, The Portable Atheist: Essential Readings for the Nonbeliever

Ruth Hurmence Green
“Not only is this not love; I think it is the most diabolical unfairness that was ever taught or devised.”
Ruth Hurmence Green

“The natural is so awesome that we need not go beyond it.”
Ruth Hurmence Green, The Born Again Skeptic's Guide To The Bible

Martin Amis
“Religious belief is without reason and without dignity, and its record is near-universally dreadful.”
Martin Amis, The Second Plane: September 11, 2001-2007

Christopher Hitchens
“Sarah Palin appears to have no testable core conviction except the belief (which none of her defenders denies that she holds, or at least has held and not yet repudiated) that the end of days and the Second Coming will occur in her lifetime. This completes the already strong case for allowing her to pass the rest of her natural life span as a private citizen.”
Christopher Hitchens, The Quotable Hitchens from Alcohol to Zionism: The Very Best of Christopher Hitchens
