Two of my favourite quotes from the lot are:

Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful.

- Seneca the Younger

and

Not only is there no god, but try getting a plumber on weekends.

- Woody Allen

Brilliant link, at least for me.

Not surprising, the piece in question has a lot of quotes from Richard Dawkins. I’m completely in love with his writings so needless to say his are the ones I quite like. Anyhow here’s what Woody Allen says:

”Not only is there no god, but try getting a plumber on weekends.”

And here’s another brilliant bit:

”With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.”

- Steven Weinberg

Excellent!! ”with or without etc....”
Good day to you,

I think when you stumbled upon them you never knew you would look up,but my guess is you don’t like looking down otherwise this ws just about it,it is quite informal it makes some of us have second thoughts in religions of the world but the fact will always remain:God rules.

Duncan — I didn’t like when people peg themselves as a christian or atheist or anything like they had a choice in it and woke up one day and said i am an atheist or whatever ,every human because of dna or mental makeup or position on earth will only be as their chemistry dictates
Your right god or gods still run the world because you just have to look at the numbers in various religions and it proves that just because a few out of billions may see things in a logical way doesn’t mean the brainwashing and cultural mind forming has lost any ground to anyone
I take no side or call myself anything- but a person of earth loving everyone and listening to everyone but follow backwards on my footprints

Excellent! Here’s one from the late George Carlin, the American stand-up comic. ”They teach religion to kids because if you can get them to believe that there is a nice kind white-bearded man up in the sky who takes care of us, then you can get them to believe ANYTHING later on in life...” Google his quotes for more anti-religious stuff. Have a good day
