    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “I have been grateful to you from the day you turned your attention to the follies and fanaticisms of religious sects.

It is by ridicule that they must be attacked, and by scorn that they must be punished.”

    “The conversion of a savage to Christianity is the conversion of Christianity to savagery.”
