“Half the people in the world think that the metaphors of their religious traditions, for example, are facts. And the other half contends that they are not facts at all. As a result we have people who consider themselves believers because they accept metaphors as facts, and we have others who classify themselves as atheists because they think religious metaphors are lies.”

“So they trust in the deity of the Old Testament, an incontinent dotard who soiled Himself and the universe with his corruption, a low-budget divinity passing itself off as the genuine article. (Ask the Gnostics.) They trust in Jesus Christ, a historical cipher stitched together like Frankenstein's monster out of parts robbed from the graves of messiahs dead and buried - a savior on a stick. They trust in the virgin-pimping Allah and his Drum Major Mohammed, a prophet-come-lately who pioneered a new genus of humbuggery for an emerging market of believers that was not being adequately served by existing religious products. They trust in anything that authenticates their importance as persons, tribes, societies, and particularly as a species that will endure in this world and perhaps in an afterworld that may be uncertain in its reality and unclear in its layout, but which states their craving for values" not of this earth "- that depressing, meaningless place their consciousness must sidestep every day.”

“Doubts are hell; believing is foolish but it helps. I am not scared of God. You may say that God is for weak people, so they believe and get stronger. But I want to see you strong enough to love the emptiness, to deal with real darkness face to face and after this, live without God. I think people's minds haven't touched this power or strength without Him yet.”

“বিভিন্ন ধর্মে বিধাতাকে পরিণত করা হয়েছে এক ক্রুদ্ধ হিংস্র স্তাবকতাপ্রিয় ভূস্বামীতে। আমরা কি এমন মানুষ কল্পনা করতে পারি, যে পছন্দ করে দিনরাত বন্দনা বা স্তুতি স্তাবকতা? নিরন্তর নিরর্থক স্তাবকতায় যেখানে অন্তঃসারশূন্য মানুষও ক্লান্তি ও ঘেন্না বোধ করবে, সেখানে কী ক'রে তা সহ্য ও উপভোগ করেন বিধাতা? বিশ্বাসীরা বিধাতার ওপর মহত্ত্ব আরোপ করতে গিয়ে, তাঁকে বিশাল ক'রে সৃষ্টি করতে গিয়ে তাঁকে ক'রে তুলেছে নিজেদের মতোই ক্ষুদ্র ও মহত্ত্বহীন। বিধাতা যদি সত্যিই বন্দনা চাইতেন, তাহলে তিনি শুন্য রাখতেন না মহাজগতকে; শুধু একটি ছোটো গ্রহে মানুষ সৃষ্টি করতেন না; মহাজগত ভ'রেই সৃষ্টি করতেন মানুষ, শুনতেন তাদের উচ্চকণ্ঠ বন্দনা। মানুষের বন্দনায় তাঁর কী দরকার? তিনি নক্ষত্রদের দিয়ে বন্দনা করাতে পারতেন, বন্দনা করাতে পারতেন নক্ষত্রপুঞ্জ দিয়ে। মহাজগতে সূর্য এক তুচ্ছ তারা, পৃথিবী এক তুচ্ছ গ্রহয়, মানুষ এক তুচ্ছ প্রাণী। মহাজগতের স্রষ্টা এতো তুচ্ছকে সৃষ্টি করেছেন তাঁর স্তুতির জন্যে? এটা যুক্তিসঙ্গত নয়। বিধাতা কল্পনা করতে গিয়ে মানুষ বিধাতাকে নিজের মতোই তুচ্ছ আর ক্ষুদ্র ক'রে তুলেছে।”
