     OP - October 17, 2008, 08:52 AM
    So what are your favourite religion related quotes?

    (forgive me if there is already a thread on this, I did a search and found nothing  whistling2)

    I have quite a few...

    "You're basically killing each other to see who's got the better imaginary friend" - Richard Jeni

    "George Bush says he speaks to god every day, and christians love him for it. If George Bush said he spoke to god through his hair dryer, they would think he was mad. I fail to see how the addition of a hair dryer makes it any more absurd." - Unknown

    "I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do because I notice it always coincides with their own desires." Susan B. Anthony

    I like the last one particularly because it relates so well to my mother, who always has 'spiritual feelings' and 'dreams' that mean something or the other Roll Eyes

    Umm, yes. About that search..................I can point you to a very nice temporary archive. whistling2

    Anyway those quotes are great. One of my favourites is the one in my sig of course. I can't remember where I found it but it sums things up pretty well.

     Cheesy I love the Deja Moo one. I think I once read a whole list of the different Dejas online, but the deja moo one was different - something like the feeling that you've seen that cow before :p

    Quote
    The most preposterous notion that H. sapiens has ever dreamed up is that the Lord God of Creation, Shaper and Ruler of all the Universes, wants the saccharine adoration of His creatures, can be swayed by their prayers, and becomes petulant if He does not receive this flattery. Yet this absurd fantasy, without a shred of evidence to bolster it, pays all the expenses of the oldest, largest, and least productive industry in all history.
    The second most preposterous notion is that copulation is inherently sinful.


    R.A.H.
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I remain.

    Religion is nothing but SHIT, and here is the SHIT list:

    Taoism: SHIT happens.

    Confucianism: Confucius say SHIT happen.

    Zen Buddhism: SHIT is, and is not.

    Zen Buddhism Redux: What is the sound of SHIT happening?

    Hinduism/Sikhism/Jainism: This SHIT happened before.

    Calvinism: SHIT happens because you don't work.

    Secular Humanism: SHIT evolves.

    Creationism: God made all SHIT.

    Darwinism: This SHIT was once food.

    Catholisicm: If SHIT happens you deserve it.

    Judaism: Why does SHIT always happen to us?

    Unitarianism: Come, let us reason together about this SHIT.

    Existentialism: SHIT doesn't happen, SHIT IS.

    Mormonism: God sent this SHIT.

    Quakers: Let us not fight over this SHIT.

    Seventh Day Adventist: No SHIT shall happen on Sunday.

    Agnostic: What is this SHIT?

    Satanism: SNEPPAH THIS.

    Atheism: What SHIT?

    Atheism redux: I can't believe this SHIT.

    Impressionsim: From a distance SHIT looks like a garden.

    Idolism: Let's bronze this SHIT.

    1. Islam: If SHIT happens it's the will of Allah.

    2. Islam redux: If SHIT happens, kill the person responsible.

    3. Islam: I'll kick the SHIT out of you.

    I was not blessed with the ability to have blind faith. I cant beleive something just because someone says its true.

    I love this. It says so much with so little.
    Though it has no bridge,
    The cloud climbs up to heaven;
    It does not seek the aid
    Of Gautama's sutras.

    For example if Jesus is called Masih in Arabic, it should means that Jesus used to wipe things with his hands, it can never mean that someone wiped Jesus with something, I can elaborate further regarding this technical issue if you wish

    without the threats provided by the bible, society would collapse and we would end up committing vehicular homicide and eating homeless people.


    Quote from: byofrcs
    Society has whittled Religion to a core but it still persists because it feeds on the unknowns in life and there will always be unknowns. Trouble is that Religion still thinks it is relevant to those arenas in which it's been discarded as irrelevant.

    "Drench yourself in wine and feast on roasted flesh, roasting in the fires flaming out of the bones. O Bulleha, break into the house of God and swindle the cheat of cheats." - Bulley Shah (greatest poet of Punjab).

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulleh_Shah

    Neither do I know the secret of religion
    Nor am I born of Adam and Eve
    I have given myself no name
    I belong neither to those who squat and pray
    Nor to those who have gone astray
    I know not who I am

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

    I think Napoleon said something similar like religion was good stuff to keep the peasants in line.

    Just some dead geezer.

    I don't know Wales south of Aberystwyth, but north of there the countryside is ravishing. Within 10 miles of where I live we have rolling farm land, starting on my back door step; fantastic white sandy beaches, one mile away; rugged granitic/metamorphic cliffs with lighthouses (google southstack); waterfalls up to 200 ft and the ex-glacial mountains of Snowdonia and the National Park.
    The further you get from England, the more picturesque it becomes.
