    And when I die, and when I'm gone
    There'll be, one child born
    In this world
    To carry on, to carry on

    Blood, Sweat, and Tears. "And when I die"

    "The objections to religion are of two sorts - intellectual and moral. The intellectual objection is that there is no reason to suppose any religion true; the moral objection is that religious precepts date from a time when men were more cruel than they are and therefore tend to perpetuate inhumanities which the moral conscience of the age would otherwise outgrow". ~ Bertrand Russell

    "Theology, by diverting the attention of men from this life to another, and by endeavoring to coerce all men into one religion, constantly preaching that this world is full of misery, but the next world would be beautiful -- or not, as the case may be -- has forced on men the thought of fear where otherwise there might have been the happy abandon of nature". ~ Elbert Hubbard
