Why would a "god" send some of the greatest thinkers, inventors and contributors to society to hell for all of eternity?
Benjamin Franklin:
"I have found Christian dogma unintelligible. Early in life, I absenteed myself from Christian assemblies......Lighthouses are more helpful then churches."
Albert Einstein: "If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for a reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed."
Galileo Galilei:
"They know that it is human nature to take up causes whereby a man may oppress his neighbor, no matter how unjustly. ... Hence they have had no trouble in finding men who would preach the damnability and heresy of the new doctrine from the very pulpit."
Thomas Edison:
"Religion is all bunk."
Thomas Paine – Author of "Common Sense":
"All national institutions of churches, whether Jewish, Christian or Turkish, appear to me no other than human inventions, set up to terrify and enslave mankind".
