I have recently been gezegde

 I have recently been examining all the known superstitions of the world, and do not find in our particular superstition (Christianity) one redeeming feature. They are all alike founded on fables and mythology.
  Thomas Jefferson

 I do not find in orthodox Christianity one redeeming feature.
  Thomas Jefferson

 Religions are all alike -- founded upon fables and mythologies
  Thomas Jefferson

 Evangelical Christianity, as everyone knows, is founded upon hate, as the Christianity of Christ was founded upon love
  Henry Louis Mencken

 There is superstition in avoiding superstitions
  Francis Bacon

 The Bible is a mass of fables and traditions, mere mythology
  Mark Twain

 If (the) empire of superstition and hypocrisy should be overthrown, happy indeed will it be for the world; but if all religion and morality should be overthrown with it, what advantages will be gained? The doctrine of human equality is founded entire

 The people of your culture cling with fanatical tenacity to the specialness of man. They want desperately to perceive a vast gulf between man and the rest of creation. This mythology of human superiority justifies their doing whatever they please with the world, just the way Hitler’s mythology of Aryan superiority justified his doing whatever he pleased with Europe. But in the end this mythology is not deeply satisfying. The Takers are a profoundly lonely people. The world for them is enemy territory, and they live in it like an army of occupation, alienated and isolated by their extraordinary specialness.

 I never think about the actual process of writing. I suppose I have a superstition about examining it too closely.

 It's a positive approach pulling people back to what Christianity is all about. This is a man who has been seized by the truth of Christianity as a very young man, and he wants to give that to the world.

 The superstition was that disability of any sort was the mark of the devil. The phrases are in languages throughout Europe: the devil's hoof, the devil's horn mark. It reaches back to early Christianity and the middle ages. Where a child was born out of wedlock, the church cooked up the impression that you'd done something sinful, and something dreadful would result. You will still find, particularly in Greece, people doing a little sign when they see a very badly disabled child – it needs warding off.

 True valor, on virtue founded strong, meets all events alike.
