Donkey's never-ending atheism thread

Wih the permission of Simon, I would like to start a thread to act as a collection of thought, quotes and miscellany on atheism and agnosticism. There are so many other threads on this subject but no one place which one can go to on here. I have much to share - enjoy and contribute with me please.

Give me the storm and stress of thought and action rather than the dead calm of ignorance and faith. Banish me from Eden when you will but first let me eat of the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge. - Robert Ingersoll

This is just another attack on Christianity. Much like jjrizo's attack on the jew-dogs. It must be stopped, sqaushed, squished, chewed up, spit out and swallowed like an african.

Six- stop making sense and bonus points for Robert Mapplethorpe and Monty Python fans class

I love Ingersoll.

The man who does not do his own thinking is a slave, and is a traitor to himself and to his fellow-men. -- Robert Green Ingersoll, "The Liberty of Man, Woman and Child"

Besides how am I attacking something which doesn't exist? ;-)

While I'm not an atheist I do love the way they cut through religous b.s. However, I often run into the atheist snob who is just sure they know all the workings of the universe. Although there seems to be less atheist snobs than religous snobs.
