Religion Quotes

Science is not about making predictions or performing experiments. Science is about explaining.

Bill Gaede

However brief our time in the sun, if we waste a second of it, orcomplain that it is dull or barren or (like a child) boring, couldn'tthis be seen as a callous insult to those unborn trillions who willnever even be offered life in the first place?

Richard Dawkins

Religion is a strange, wonderful thing. More crimes have been committed in the name of righteousness than any other notion.

Tom T. Hall

The truth is, however, that every religion form is superior to the others in a particular respect, and it is this characteristic that in fact indicates the sufficient reason for the existence of that form.

Frithjof Schuon

It is in your hands to make life miserable or happy. No religion, spiritual leaders or knowledge will ever make you fully satisfied.

Santosh Kalwar

In the early days I had a very black-and-white view of everything. I think that's kind of natural for anyone who's just embraced Islam - or any religion - as a convert. It was important for me to duck out of the fast and furious life I'd been living as a pop star. I was in a different mood.

Cat Stevens

In requiring this candor and simplicity of mind in those who would investigate the truth of our religion, Christianity demands nothing more than is readily conceded to every branch of human science.

Simon Greenleaf

Science is not religion. We're not going to be able to answer the why questions. But when you put together all of what we know about the universe, it fits together amazingly well.

Lisa Randall

Religion is the fashionable substitute for belief

Oscar Wilde

More than a decade ago, a Supreme Court decision literally wiped off the books of fifty states statutes protecting the rights of unborn children. Abortion on demand now takes the lives of up to 1.5 million unborn children a year. Human life legislation ending this tragedy will some day pass the Congress, and you and I must never rest until it does. Unless and until it can be proven that the unborn child is not a living entity, then its right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness must be protected.

Ronald Reagan

Women's degradation is in man's idea of his sexual rights. Our religion, laws, customs, are all founded on the belief that woman was made for man. Come what will, my whole soul rejoices in the truth that I have uttered.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton

...this clumsy collision of two very impatient forms of ignorance was known as the quarrel of Science and Religion.

G.K. Chesterton

O puro espírito é pura mentira. Enquanto o padre continuar a passar por ser uma espécie superior - o padre, esse negador, esse caluniador, esse envenenador da vida por profissão - , não há resposta para a pergunta: que é a verdade? A verdade fica logo colocada em cima da cabeça, se o advogado confesso do nada e da negação passa por ser o representante da verdade...

Friedrich Nietzsche

In education, as in religion and love, compulsion thwarts the purpose for which it is employed.

John Lancaster Spalding

This religion taught to her children what men have only been able to discover by their greatest knowledge.

Blaise Pascal

Since this is the age of science, not religion, psychiatrists are our rabbis, heroin is our pork, and the addict is the unclean person.

I have recently been examining all the known superstitions of the world and do not find in our particular superstition [Christianity] one redeeming feature.

Thomas Jefferson

Hate the sin, love the sinner.

Mahatma Gandhi

A religion without mystery must be a religion without God.

Jeremy Taylor

I would say that all our sciences are the material that has to be mythologized. A mythology gives spiritual import - what one might call rather the psychological, inward import, of the world of nature round about us, as understood today. There's no real conflict between science and religion ... What is in conflict is the science of 2000 BC ... and the science of the 20th century AD.

Joseph Campbell
