"I believe the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man.  All the good from the Saviour of the world is communicated to us through this book."

- Abraham Lincoln

"Faith is, believing something without evidence, but with only the inner conviction that it is true."

Ascony





"Thomas did not believe the resurrection; and as they say, would not believe without having ocular and manual demonstration himself.
So neither will I; and the reason is equally as good for me, and for every other person, as for Thomas."

Thomas Paine



"I don't believe in guilt, I believe in living on impulse as long as you never intentionally hurt another person, and don't judge people in your life. I think you should live completely free."

Angelina Jolie

Religion is like a laboratory experiment that lost control, the specimen now controls the scientist.

"The Cosmos is all that is or ever was or ever will be."

- Carl Sagan, Cosmos (New York: Random House, 1980), p.4.

It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible. -- George Washington

I am profitably engaged in reading the Bible. Take all of this Book that you can by reason and the balance by faith, and you will live and die a better man. It is the best Book which God has given to man. --Abraham Lincoln

I have always said that a studious perusal of the sacred volume will make better citizens, better fathers, and better husbands. --Thomas Jefferson.

The Bible has been the Magna Charta of the poor and oppressed. The human race is not in a position to dispense with it. -- Thomas Huxley

"I am going to put the Bible out of business." -- Robert Ingersoll

"Another century and there will not be a Bible on earth!" -- Voltaire

"Voltaire expected that within fifty years of his lifetime there would not be one Bible in the world.  His house is now a distribution centre for Bibles in many languages". -- Corrie Ten Boom 

Our God surely has a sense of humour. 

I am an atheist, out and out. It took me a long time to say it. I've been an atheist for years and years, but somehow I felt it was intellectually unrespectable to say that one is an atheist, because it assumed knowledge that one didn't have. Somehow it was better to say one was a humanist or agnostic. I don't have the evidence to prove that God doesn't exist, but I so strongly suspect that he doesn't that I don't want to waste my time."
(Isaac Asimov / 1920-1992)


""I have observed that the world has suffered far less from ignorance than from pretensions to knowledge. It is not skeptics or explorers but fanatics and ideologues who menace decency and progress. No agnostic ever burned anyone at the stake or tortur."
(Daniel J. Boorstin, American historian and author / 1914 - 2004)


"I do not consider it an insult, but rather a compliment to be called an agnostic. I do not pretend to know where many ignorant men are sure - that is all that agnosticism means."
(Clarence Darrow / 1857-1938 / Scopes trial / 1925)


"The mystery of the beginning of all things is insoluble by us, and I for one must be content to remain an agnostic."
(Charles Darwin / 1809-1882 / quoted from James A. Haught, "Breaking the Last Taboo" / 1996)


"Well, I tell you, if I have been wrong in my agnosticism, when I die I'll walk up to God in a manly way and say, Sir, I made an honest mistake."
(Henry Louis Mencken / 1880-1956)


As to the gods, I have no means of knowing either that they exist or do not exist."
(Protagoras / 485-410 BC / in Plato's Theaetetus)

"O God, if there is a God, save my soul if I have a soul."
(Ernest Renan / 1823-1892)

"An atheist, like a Christian, holds that we can know whether or not there is a God. The Christian holds that we can know there is a God; the atheist, that we can know there is not. The Agnostic suspends judgment, saying that there are not sufficient grounds either for affirmation or for denial. At the same time, an Agnostic may hold that the existence of God, though not impossible, is very improbable; he may even hold it so improbable that it is not worth considering in practice. In that case, he is not far removed from atheism."
(Bertrand Russell / 1872-1970)

"Voltaire expected that within fifty years of his lifetime there would not be one Bible in the world. His house is now a distribution centre for Bibles in many languages". -- Corrie Ten Boom

To all atheists abeg before you draw your daggers and questions, don't bother abeg i don't have the strength to discuss tonight , i need to rest, i am mentally tired right now.

I have never seen the slightest scientific proof of the evolutionists idea of the origin of earth and man

-David

there are SO many christians that believe in evolution you goon and you are in NO way a better christian than them, go write a book debunking all the claims of evolution and prove to your fellow christians that believe it how stupid and foolish they are for holding such beliefs. . . . .

davidylan:

look who is talking, on the other hand you believe in the words and imaginations of ancient tribal savages to validate your own insecurity and miserable life eh? if your tribe were alive and living close to the land of the anceint jews your tribe would have long been wiped off the map. . . . . idiot. . . . .

Africa is the only continent where people believe that prayers rather than actions will solve thier problems. Actions speak louder than prayers words.
