“Christians always write to me threatening me with Hell. Strange how they think this vindicates them and their religion. Threats are the hallmark of a wicked creed.”
-- Richard Carrier

#Christian #Writing #Thinking
“It is probably true that almost all atheists stand for the values of reason and freethought. I will attempt to put these values in more substantial terms. There is the belief that inquiry and doubt are essential checks against deception, self deception, and error. There is the belief that logic and the scientific method is the only way the world can arrive at an agreement on the truth about anything.”
-- Richard Carrier

#Atheist #Self #Agreement
“That someone would want another human being to suffer, or would even tolerate the idea, for committing no crime at all but being reasonable, is truly frightening. A religion that breeds such people is a genuine plague upon the earth.”
-- Richard Carrier

#Ideas #People #Suffering
“The Christian religion is so manifestly contrary to the facts, belief in it can only be held with the most delusional gerrymandering imaginable.”
-- Richard Carrier

#Christian #Religion #Atheism
“God needs blood to fix the universe, but only his own blood had enough magical power to do it, so he gave himself a body and then killed it.”
-- Richard Carrier

#Blood #Body #Had Enough
“You must test your own religious claims and texts by the same standards you apply to other religions. If your religion's claims and texts fair no better, then your religion is just as false as theirs is.”
-- Richard Carrier

#Religious #Religion #Tests
“If I had to sit in Heaven forever, knowing that there are these people, millions and millions- probably billions of people, suffering these eternal horrible torments and there was nothing I could ever do for them, that, to me, would be Hell.”
-- Richard Carrier

#Knowing #People #Forever
“I am like all other atheists only in that I do not believe there are any gods. Beyond that, I may differ dramatically in my values and beliefs from any other atheist. On both sides of the political spectrum, one can find the neo-conservative Objectivists and the ultra-liberal Communists, both of whom hate each other. These two factions take up nearly opposite sets of values, yet both are comprised of unabashed atheists.”
-- Richard Carrier

#Atheist #Hate #Believe
“Reason bases its decisions on evidence available to everyone, and allows people to disagree when evidence is lacking. Religion will never do that.”
-- Richard Carrier

#People #Decision #Atheism
