Portal:Atheism/Selected quote/15

* “Whenever morality is based on theology, whenever the right is made dependent on divine authority, the most immoral, unjust, infamous things can be justified and established. … Morality is then surrendered to the groundless arbitrariness of religion.” - Ludwig Feuerbach
* “Atheism leaves a man to sense, to philosophy, to natural piety, to laws, to reputation, all which may be guides to an outward moral virtue, though religion were not, but superstition dismounts all these, and erecteth an absolute monarchy in the minds of men.” - Sir Francis Bacon
* “Anyone can be an atheist -- God willing.” - Anon
