Famous quotes containing the words strong and/or atheism:
“A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle.”
—Bible: Hebrew Proverbs, 18:19.
“But they that hold God to be [an incorporeal substance] ... do absolutely make God to be nothing at all. But how? Were they atheists? No. For though by ignorance of the consequence they said that which was equivalent to atheism, yet in their hearts they thought God a substance ... So that this atheism by consequence is a very easy thing to be fallen into, even by the most godly men of the church.”
—Thomas Hobbes (1588–1679)
