“Taking all in all, God is, as he candidly informs us in his autobiographical chronicle — the Bible — extremely whimsical and revengeful; actually an ideal model of a despot.” GodFreedomLibertyAtheismBibleTyrannySkepticismAnarchismDespotism Book:An Anarchist Reader Source: An Anarchist Reader
“The so-called 'cardinal sins' are never punished with purgatory, always with hell. These include among others 'blasphemy,' perpetrated by word, by writing, or by thought. Consequently, in this direction God permit neither freedom of the press, nor speech, not even of the unspoken thought. This in itself is enough to stamp him from the outset as a successful competitor in churlishness with the basest despots and tyrants of any country or time, but the means and the duration of his punishments augment the baseness of his nature to the utmost. Consequently this God is the most atrocious monster conceivable.” GodAtheismTyrannyAnarchismAnti ReligionAnarcho Communism Book:An Anarchist Reader Source: An Anarchist Reader
