Famous quotes containing the word religion:

    This religion takes away the courage of thinking of unusual things and prohibits self-examination above all as the most egregious of sins.... It is one step away from protestantism.
    Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)

    By 1879, seven churches of various denominations were holding services, which led the local Chronicle to comment, “All have but one religion and one God in common; it is the Crucified Carbonate.”
    —Administration in the State of Colo, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    People in general are equally horrified at hearing the Christian religion doubted, and at seeing it practised.
    Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
