Atheists and their fellow travelers point to Islamic terrorism as a wake-up call that we'd better abandon God or the biblical disasters attributed to him will pale in comparison to what we'll end up doing to ourselves. In other words, God may not be dead, but keeping him alive endangers the human race. ↗

As a philosopher, if I were speaking to a purely philosophic audience I should say that I ought to describe myself as an Agnostic, because I do not think that there is a conclusive argument by which one can prove that there is not a God. On the other hand, if I am to convey the right impression to the ordinary man in the street I think that I ought to say that I am an Atheist, because, when I say that I cannot prove that there is not a God, I ought to add equally that I cannot prove that there are not the Homeric gods. ↗

I belong to a gospel choir. They know I am an atheist but they are very tolerant. ↗

I'm actually an evangelical atheist, but there is something I recognise about religion: that it gives people a chance to surrender. ↗

When I think about atheist friends, including my father, they seem to me like people who have no ear for music, or who have never been in love. ↗
