POPSTheist Quotes - a collection from various forums This doesn't even scratch the surface! Most of it is hilarious, and sad, that people can be so intellectually impoverished. I left off the names because they are probably embarrassing by now, assuming these people have improved their thinking.

POPSMay I Quote You, Mr. President? 22-"See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda." 25-"Free nations don't develop weapons of mass destruction." 31- "The most important thing is for us to find Osama bin Laden. It is our number one priority and we will not rest until we find him." 32- "I don't know where bin Laden is. I have no idea and really don't care. It's not that important. It's not our priority." 36-"I have made good judgments in the past.

POPSChaldean archbishop seized What could possibly be the reason for kidnapping this fellow and killing his aides? Are religious differences the cancer of the human race? Did god tell them to do this? Did the archbishop's prayers not reach god? Was god listening at all? What would have been the result if there was no god? Why do we let this virus infect the human mind?
