Quotations
Religion
We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love.
- David Mitchell
One of the truly bad effects of religion is that it teaches us that it is a virtue to be satisfied with not understanding.
- Richard Dawkins
Religious gurus are managing their businesses by misleading the world, but
it is a smaller crime. Their greater crime is; not only are they suppressing the
qualities and philosophies of great people, but are also running their businesses
by linking them to useless miracles.
- Deep Trivedi
I am for religion, against religions.
- Victor Hugo

- Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Other than our 'mind', what is it that we have, which we can call our own?
Everything else is gifted by nature and made usable by science. At the same
time, if you talk of joy of mind, it lies in "art". But then it is difficult to understand
that in this process, where do we feel the need for these 'so-called religions'?
- Deep Trivedi
Religion is just mind control.
- George Carlin
We are so interested in religion that first we put the person who has come to
awaken us to sleep. Then making him God, we establish such a religion around
him that we don't face any obstacle in perpetrating the violence, jealousy, partiality,
lies, cheating, fraud or pretence as we desire; and simultaneously adhering to
few hypocrisies, also remain proud of being religious.
- Deep Trivedi
It was the experience of mystery -- even if mixed with fear -- that engendered religion.
- Albert Einstein
