Those who say religion has nothing to do with politics do not know what religion is.
-Mahatma Gandhi
Quotations
Religion
We are quite bizarre ourselves, so are our religious heads too. Merely to satiate
our pride we visit them to listen to good things about our religion and they being
clever take undue advantage of it, pander to our ego and continue to prosper.
This blinds us so much that we stop seeing the negativities of our religion and
positive aspects of other religions. You cannot even imagine what a great loss it
is for you.
-Deep Trivedi
Those who are fundamentalists and refuse to listen to anything said against them,
we call them terrorists. Don't you find similar traits in majority of our religious
heads? If this wasn't true then why were Socrates, Mansoor and Jesus killed?
-Deep Trivedi
I am a religious person, although I am not a believer.
-Philip Pullman
When you see a man with a great deal of religion displayed in his shop window, you may depend upon it he keeps a very small stock of it within.
-Charles H. Spurgeon
We have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love.
-David Mitchell
"The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet"
It was the experience of mystery -- even if mixed with fear -- that engendered religion.
-Albert Einstein
In the past 50 years, what joy and happiness has been offered by the politicians
and religious heads to the people of our country? And in comparison, what is
it that has not been bestowed by our legendary singers like Mohammed Rafi,
Kishore Kumar or Lata - Asha... Thanks to their voices, even today people get to
live a life of bliss and serenity for at least two hours a day.
-Deep Trivedi
We must remember that the test of our religious principles lies not just in what we say, not only in our prayers, not even in living blameless lives - but in what we do for others
-Harry S. Truman
The biggest scourges of human life are fear, false hopes and dependency.
Thanks to the so-called religious hypocrisies, you do not get anything else but
these three.
-Deep Trivedi
