Some of the articles to which I have contributed

"There are no gods, no devils, no angels, no heaven or hell.
There is only our natural world.
Religion is but myth and superstition that hardens hearts and enslaves minds."
— Freedom from Religion Foundation

"I don't believe in God because I don't believe in Mother Goose."
— Clarence Darrow

"Nothing fails like prayer"
— Austin Cline

A glance at history, or at the pages of any newspaper, reveals that ideas which divide one group
of human beings from another, only to unite them in slaughter, generally have their roots in religion.
— "The End of Faith,"   Sam Harris

Religion is violent, irrational, intolerant, allied to racism, tribalism, and bigotry,
invested in ignorance and hostile to inquiry, contemptuous or women and coercive toward children.
— "God Is Not Great,"   Christopher Hitchens

Imagine a world without religion ...

“Imagine no suicide bombers, no 9/11, no 7/7, no Crusades, no witch-hunts, no Gunpowder Plot, no Indian Partition, no Israeli/Palestinian wars, no Serb/Croat/Muslim massacres, no persecution of Jews as ‘Christ-killers’, no Northern Ireland ‘troubles’, no ‘honor killings’, no shiny-suited bouffant-haired televangelists fleecing gullible people of their money (’God wants you to give till it hurts’).

“Imagine no Taliban to blow up ancient statues, no public beheading of blasphemers, no flogging of female skin for showing an inch of it.”

— "The God Delusion,"   Richard Dawkins
