This is one of my favorite quotes . . . . that I lifted off of a Christopher Hitchens video on youtube, since is seems to not be so well known . . .
"One obstacle to liberty, is the poisonous role played by fellow primates of mine, who think they can tell me what to do, in the name of god, because god has told them that they have this power. So that is one thing I would like to be shot of, right here in the here and now, and in my suspicion is, if they really are so religious, where do they want power, in what world they care about, the next one, or this one . . . . . it will be this one every time because they too, know perfectly well, that this is the only life we have got."
He makes a good point - IMO If anybody Really Believed in the stuff the bible says - they know they are all going to hell - because we all know - NOBODY has not broken those commandments, not to mention all the other rules - not allowed to were cloth of mixed or blended fabrics - if your wife is not a virgin you must slay her - advocates slavery - slaughter - rape - the whole thing is so wrong -
I keep trying to tell them - if you need to worship something worship life, not death - worship the earth, the sun , the moon, the universe - this is what gives us all life - & P.S. Nothing gets out alive, not even you...
