“Prayer – The Art Of Talking To Yourself”

“The claim that God answers prayer is contrary to reality.”

“We have no use for gods, holy books, heaven, hell, souls, salvations, sin, prayer, creed, doctrine or dogma, as these things are about as influential to us as an ice-cube on the surface of the sun.”

“It takes a huge contortion of logic to reconcile a loving and just God who hears and answers prayers with the millions of faithful believers who continue to endure unimaginable suffering every single day.”

“Willful ignorance is an insult to the collective of human intelligence. Considering the vast amount of knowledge that is easily available, it is unconscionable that there remain living human beings who still believe in a young earth, creationism, the efficacy of prayer, the concept of original sin and the role that human sacrifice plays in its atonement, or any one of the literally hundreds of other aspects of religious dogma and doctrine that should have been abandoned half a century ago.”

“When mystical elements are introduced into morality, the whole system ends up being corrupted.”

“. The understanding that what is good supports basic human rights and anything that threatens it is bad. We do not need a supernatural deity or an ancient holy book to determine this.”
