Religion Quotes A-Z by Author |
I don't think the government can dictate
the definition of marriage to religious
institutions. But government does have an
obligation to guarantee that every individual
is free of discrimination. And there's a
distinction. I think government should not
be able to dictate to religions the definition
of marriage, but on a civil side, government
has the obligation to strip away every vestige
of discrimination as to what individuals
are able to do in terms of their personal
conduct.

My position is that I am personally opposed
to abortion, but I don't think I have a
right to impose my view on the rest of society.
I've thought a lot about it, and my position
probably doesn't please anyone. I think
the government should stay out completely.
I will not vote to overturn the Court's
decision. I will not vote to curtail a woman's
right to choose abortion. But I will also
not vote to use federal funds to fund abortion.

One of the things that I picked up from
my father and my mother was the sense that
religion often gets in the way of God.

My pro-life position is I believe there's
life. It's not necessarily based in religion.
I think there's a life there, therefore
the notion of life, liberty and pursuit
of happiness.

We're taking action against evil people.
Because this great nation of many religions
understands, our war is not against Islam,
or against faith practiced by the Muslim
people. Our war is a war against evil. This
is clearly a case of good versus evil, and
make no mistake about it.. good will prevail.

I've made it clear, Madam President, that
the war against terrorism is not a war against
Muslims, nor is it a war against Arabs.
It's a war against evil people who conduct
crimes against innocent people.

When it comes to the common rights and needs
of men and women, there is no clash of civilizations.
The requirements of freedom apply fully
to Africa and Latin America and the entire
Islamic world. The peoples of the Islamic
nations want and deserve the same freedoms
and opportunities as people in every nation.
And their governments should listen to their
hopes.

I think Australians are rightly suspicious
of people who will try and use religion
for another end. I don't think that's right
and I don't think it should be done, but
I think it should inform values, and it
does.

This is not the kind of country where you
would feel comfortable if you were opposed
to democracy, parliamentary law, independent
courts and so I would say to people who
don't feel comfortable with those values
there might be other countries where they'd
feel more comfortable with their own values
or beliefs

I think this feeling that I have for people
and the importance of behaving in a way
which is respectful to people of all colours,
shapes, sizes and religions goes back a
very long way.. possibly to my mother and
father in very early stages of childhood.

The God of the Old Testament is arguably
the most unpleasant character in all fiction:
jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust,
unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive,
bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic,
homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal,
filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal,
sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent
bully.

I think the important thing to learn is
that we can retain a sentimental loyalty
to the cultural and literary traditions
of, say, Judaism, Anglicanism or Islam,
and even participate in religious rituals
such as marriages and funerals, without
buying into the supernatural beliefs that
historically went along with those traditions.
We can give up belief in God while not losing
touch with a treasured heritage.

We are all atheists about most of the gods

I am against religion because it teaches

Religious people split into three main groups
when faced with science. I shall label them
the "know-nothings", the "know-alls",
and the "no-contests."

I doubt that religion can survive deep understanding.
The shallows are its natural habitat. Cranks
and fundamentalists are too often victimised
as scapegoats for religion in general. It
is only quite recently that Christianity
reinvented itself in non-fundamentalist
guise, and Islam has yet to do so.

Religion is about turning untested belief

I think that the Bible as literature should
be a compulsory part of the national curriculum..
you can't understand English literature
and culture without it. But insofar as theology
studies the nature of the divine, it will
earn the right to be taken seriously when
it provides the slightest, smallest smidgen
of a reason for believing in the existence
of the divine. Meanwhile, we should devote
as much time to studying serious theology
as we devote to studying serious fairies
and serious unicorns.

Most people, I believe, think that you need
a God to explain the existence of the world,
and especially the existence of life. They
are wrong, but our education system is such
that many people don't know it.

Faith is the great cop out, the great excuse
to evade the need to think and evaluate
evidence. Faith is belief in spite of, even
perhaps because of, the lack of evidence.

I really had no religious upbringing, which
is unusual. But I think it saved me, because
when I found the theory that I wanted to
follow, I did not have anything to unlearn.
