Why impress false religion on the world? It will be of no service to it. Why run about for the sake of wealth? You cannot escape from death… Think, O think, you thoughtless fool, you shall have in the end to depart alone.
Whether we like it or not, the one justification for the existence of all religions is death, they need death as much as we need bread to eat.
-José Saramago
"Death with Interruptions"
To hate man and love god seems to be the sum of all creeds.
-Robert G. Ingersoll
The minute you get a religion you stop thinking. Believe in one thing too much and you have no room for new ideas.
-Ray Bradbury

Religion is just mind control.
-George Carlin
This is my simple religion. There is no need for temples; no need for complicated philosophy. Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.
-Dalai Lama
The whole world is so-called religious...barring a few intellectuals. But then
where does all the anger, miseries, worries, envy, hatred and failure come from?
... Because, conquering all these feelings is only religiousness.
-Deep Trivedi
In religion and politics people’s beliefs and convictions are in almost every case gotten at second-hand
If I had to choose a religion, the sun as the universal giver of life would be my god.
