“It’s a miracle! God be praised for saving our loved ones!” 33 miners’ families in Chile
“Why didn’t he save ours?” At least 12000 miners’ families worldwide, per year.

If we start thinking we deserve more than God gives us, we’ll lose it all.

Science relies on evidence to lead us to the best possible conclusions about what happened and religion relies on something other than evidence. Why? Because they don’t have evidence, faith is the excuse people give when they have no good reason for their beliefs. If you had a good reason, you wouldn’t need faith. Matt Dillihunty: The Atheist Experience

Religious war. Killing each other to see who has the best-imaginary-friend/most-peaceful-religion.

When I ask why the poor have no food, the call me a communist.
Dom Helder Camara, Brazilian archbishop, as quoted in Peace Behind Bars : A Peacemaking Priest’s Journal from Jail (1995) by John Dear, p. 65; this is a translation of “Quando dou comida aos pobres chamam-me de santo. Quando pergunto por que eles são pobres chamam-me de comunista.”

This person believes in Reason and Logic, not fairy tales, mystical creatures or poor excuses to behave well.

“I am against religion because it teaches us to be satisfied with not understanding the world.” Richard Dawkins

The good thing about science is that it’s true whether or not you believe in it. Neil de Grasse Tyson

So? Just use your head and don’t concern yourself overmuch with what other people think.
But he says the fossils in the mountains were put there in a flood!
Well, evidence suggest that they were not.
But he–
A million people can call the mountains a fiction, yet it need not trouble you as you stand atop them.

It’s called faith because it’s not knowledge. Christopher Hitchens
