Anyone who can worship a trinity and insist that his religion is a monotheism can believe anything. - Robert Heinlein

My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind. - Albert Einstein

That religion may have served some necessary function for us in the past does not preclude the possibility that it is now the greatest impediment to our building a global civilization. - Sam Harris

Religious beliefs prepare a kind of landscape of images, an illusory milieu favourable to every hallucination and every delirium. - Michel Foucault

Religious bondage shackles and debilitates the mind and unfits it for every noble enterprise. - James Madison

Actions inspired by fear of future punishment or hope of future reward are entirely selfish and unworthy of religion. - James Platt
