H. L. Mencken Quotes:

Ocupation: Journalist

Life: September 12, 1880 - January 29, 1956

Birthday: September 12

Death: January 29

What I got in Sunday school ... was simply a firm conviction that the Christian faith was full of palpable absurdities, and the Christian God preposterous.... The act of worship, as carried on by Christians, seems to me to be debasing rather than ennobling. It involves groveling before a being who, if he really exists, deserves to be denounced instead of respected.
