I find distasteful the traditional idea of Christianity which preaches the resurrection of the body. Frankly, I see my body as more of a limitation than a virtue, and I will be glad to be free of it rather than having to continue to cart it around. I prefer to believe that souls can exist independently from bodies.

A faith is a necessity to a man. Woe to him who believes in nothing.

Prayer is a turning to God.

Here is God's purpose - for God, to me, it seems, is a verb not a noun, proper or improper.

You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.

I like the religion that teaches liberty, equality and fraternity.

I'm normally not a praying man, but if you're up there, please save me Superman.

The ink of the scholar is more sacred than the blood of the martyr.

All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree.

Religion is about turning untested belief into unshakable truth through the power of institutions and the passage of time.

Being spiritual has nothing to do with what you believe and everything to do with your state of consciousness.

Christians have burned each other, quite persuaded That all the apostles would have done as they did.

Do not abandon yourselves to despair. We are the Easter people and hallelujah is our song.

Give us this day our daily faith, but deliver us, dear God, from belief.

Religion is excellent stuff for keeping common people quiet. Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich.

I have been all things unholy. If God can work through me, He can work through anyone.

Faith without doubt is addiction

Man is to be found in reason, God in the passions.

Whoever loves to meet God, God loves to meet him.
