Religion Quotes – Inspirational Reflections and Insights

"Religion is like a blind man looking in a black room for a black cat that isn’t there, and finding it."

Oscar Wilde

"So, we are not living in the age of science, but rather in the darkest religious age of various cults—yes, all of which share a common goal, a common denominator: to enslave people and keep them intellectually stunted.

Yes, that is the brief conclusion from this overview of the various scientific disciplines."

Franz Hörmann

"Religion is excellent stuff for keeping common people quiet. Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich."

Napoleon Bonaparte

"Christianity will go," he said. "It will vanish and shrink. I needn't argue about that; I'm right and I will be proved right. We're more popular than Jesus now."

John Lennon

"For many people science has become a belief system — a world view. This is sometimes called ‘scientism’ — where people take the dogmas of science to be a kind of religious belief system… And it’s this dogmatic belief system which I believe is now constricting and holding science back in a very serious way."

Rupert Sheldrake

"“It’s so many of our children that are being vaccinated and paralyzed. . . . So when they say the way we’re going to fix Covid is with a vaccine, I’m extremely cautious. That’s the mark of the beast. They want to put chips inside of us, they want to do all kinds of things, to make it where we can’t cross the gates of heaven. I'm sorry when I say they, the humans that have the Devil inside them. And the sad thing is that, the saddest thing is that we all won’t make it to heaven, that there’ll be some of us that do not make it.”"

Kanye West

"Jesus was the poorest of the poor. Roman Catholicism, which claims to be His church, is the richest of the rich, the wealthiest institution on earth. How come, that such an institution, ruling in the name of this same itinerant preacher, whose want was such that he had not even a pillow upon which to rest his head, is now so top-heavy with riches that she can rival – indeed, that she can put to shame – the combined might of the most redoubtable financial trusts, of the most potent industrial super-giants, and of the most prosperous global corporation of the world?"

Avro Manhattan

"The Catholic Church must be the biggest corporation in the United States. We have a branch office in every neighborhood. Our assets and real estate holdings must exceed those of Standard Oil, A.T.&T., and U.S. Steel combined. And our roster of dues-paying members must be second only to the tax rolls of the United States Government."

Avro Manhattan

"The religion of Masonry is a system of absolute despotism, and like that of Rome, demands a blind unquestioning obedience to all its laws, rules, and edicts, whether ‘right or wrong.’ . . . what a singular commentary on the indifference, the subserviency, or the cowardice of society, that an institution, professedly organized by such cunning knaves [the Jesuits], and for such base purposes, and which has been sustained by fraud, falsehood and deception, from the commencement of its career to the present time, should be permitted today to dictate to, if not virtually to rule the nation, and to create such a dread in communities that even some of the ministers of Christian denominations who detest its vile philosophy, and who would like to see it swept from the face of the earth, are absolutely afraid to mention its name, either in the pulpit, the prayer meeting or the Sabbath school, lest its secret vendetta vengeance might, in some concealed manner, be wreaked upon them."

Edmond Ronayne

"Despite the tendency of doctors to call modern medicine an ‚inexact science‘, it is more accurate to say there is practically no science in modern medicine at all. Almost everything doctors do is based on a conjecture, a guess, a clinical impression, a whim, a hope, a wish, an opinion or a belief. In short, everything they do is based on anything but solid scientific evidence. Thus, medicine is not a science at all, but a belief system. Beliefs are held by every religion, including the Religion of Modern Medicine."

Dr. Robert Mendelsohn

"Medicine has today become a religion, and doctors are the priests of this religion, very powerful priests ... they can tell you to (insert command here) and you normally do it."

Robert S. Mendelsohn

"If medicines and vaccines were merely products of medical science, then dealing with them could also be a matter of science. But medicines are not scientific; they are sacred...."

Dr. Robert S. Mendelsohn

"If we go back to the beginning we shall find that ignorance and fear created the gods; that fancy, enthusiasm, or deceit adorned or disfigured them; that weakness worships them; that credulity preserves them, and that custom, respect and tyranny support them in order to make the blindness of man serve its own interests."

Paul-Henri Thiry d’Holbach

"Everyone has to find what is right for them, and it is different for everyone. Eating for me is how you proclaim your beliefs three times a day. That is why all religions have rules about eating. Three times a day, I remind myself that I value life and do not want to cause pain to or kill other living beings. That is why I eat the way I do."

Natalie Portman

"We now find our gods not on the altar, but in the bottle of alcohol, the football match on television, the new pair of shoes and the arms of the casual lover."

Bernardo Kastrup

"Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction."

Blaise Pascal

"Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by rulers as useful."

Seneca

"Morality is doing what is right, no matter what you are told. Religion is doing what you are told, no matter what is right."

H. L. Mencken
