Quotations
Religion
All the religions of the world may be good and true. But situated as we are, our own religion is the best for us.
-D. S. Sarma
I hate organized religion. I hate that people use it to justify their crappy, bigoted beliefs.

"Saving June"
Why did the intelligent people of the world lose interest in religion? Because
instead of the talks and teachings of Buddha, Jesus and Krishna, they were
presented with the Bible and Vedas concocted by the religious gurus.
-Deep Trivedi
Science is the name for transformation brought in the psychology of substances
and religion is the name for the knowledge which transforms the psychology of
human beings. Science can provide material comforts to a human being, but
for mental well-being, one has to change his psychology. Hence, striking a fine
balance between the two is the only way to lead a human being and the world
onto the path of progress.
-Deep Trivedi
I am a religious person, although I am not a believer.
-Philip Pullman
My best advice to anyone who wants to raise a happy, mentally healthy child is: Keep him or her as far away from a church as you can.
-Frank Zappa
Religious gurus are managing their businesses by misleading the world, but
it is a smaller crime. Their greater crime is; not only are they suppressing the
qualities and philosophies of great people, but are also running their businesses
by linking them to useless miracles.
-Deep Trivedi
Religion is based primarily and mainly upon fear.
-Bertrand Russell
Religion is like a pair of shoes.....Find one that fits for you, but don't make me wear your shoes.
-George Carlin
