The First Amendment of our Constitution secures the freedom of worship. Why should all Grand Canyon visitors be subject to only one specific religious explanation of this geological accomplishment? ...We are not removing "God" from the Grand Canyon; we are simply removing religion.
Letter to the Editor in The Arizona Republic, July 18, 2003

This site serves as an archive of quotations dealing with religion and philosophy. Specific topics covered include, but are not limited to: God, faith, reason, skepticism, atheism, agnosticism, fundamentalism, extremism. The quotes are chosen on the basis of my finding them interesting - regardless of whether I agree with them or not. This is by no means an exhaustive collection, although it does grow as I add quotes regularly.
Suggestions? Feel free to email me with quotations you think could be added. I can't guarantee that I will respond to each message and, please, be sure to include a full citation with each quote. There are a lot of sites out there that have many quotes without citations, thus preventing readers from being able to trace the authorship. I have very few of those and don't want any more, if I can help it.
