“An atheist believes that a hospital should be built instead of a church. An
atheist believes that a deed must be done instead of a prayer said. An atheist
strives for involvement in life and not escape into death. He wants disease
conquered, poverty banished, war eliminated.” — Madalyn Murray O’Hair
“… the government of the United States of America is not in any sense
founded on the Christian Religion…” — Treaty of Tripoli
“Question with boldness even the existence of a god; because, if there be
one, he must more approve the homage of reason, than that of blindfolded fear.”
— Thomas Jefferson
“It will never be pretended that any persons employed in that service
[writing the Constitution] had interviews with the gods, or were in any degree
under the inspiration of Heaven.” — John Adams
“When religion is good, I conceive it will support itself; and when it does
not support itself, and God does not take care to support it so that its
professors are obliged to call for help of the civil power, ’tis a sign, I
apprehend, of its being a bad one.” — Benjamin Franklin
