A Little Pat for your Friday

My favorite bits:

It's our fault for indulging religion and for giving religious opinion a status in our society that it hasn't earned and doesn't deserve.

Your soul doesn't need cleansing and is not dirty, and anyone who tells you otherwise is doing so for their own benefit, not for yours.

Because the purpose of religion is the employment and empowerment of clergy.

Secularism is not atheism, as many of these god-peddling faith jockeys will often try to pretend...

It means religious freedom for everybody, not just religious people.

It means respecting everyone's right to worship freely, but removing the power of the middlemen, the clergymen, to interfere and meddle, uninvinted, into peoples' lives.

I just don't think it's possible for us to stay this stupid for ever. We'll try of course.

I don't want it to take thousands of years, I want it to happen now.
