«No man who ever lived knows any more about the hereafter than you and I; and all religion is simply evolved out of chicanery, fear, greed, imagination and poetry.»
– Edgar Allan Poe

«Black holes would seem to suggest that God not only plays dice, but also sometimes throws them where they cannot be seen.»
– Stephen Hawking

«Religion is an illusion and it derives its strength from the fact that it falls in with our instinctual desires.»
– Sigmund Freud

«All thinking men are atheists.»
– Ernest Hemingway

Også vår kjære James Madison og Albert Einstein hadde kloke ord på hjertet:

«If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for a reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed.»
