Angry God Quotes

“The central ideas of Christianity — an angry God and vicarious atonement — are contrary to every fact in nature, as also to the better aspirations of the human heart; they are, in our present stage of enlightenment, absurd, preposterous, and blasphemous propositions. Christians well know that the much-decorated statue of the Church, as it now stands, is not of pure chiseled marble, but of clay, cemented together by blood and tears and hardened in the fires of hatred and persecution. And still we hear the cry, 'The whole world for Christ'.”

“If you believe that God is good and that He loves you without regard to whom you are or what you do, you will worship Him wholeheartedly. You will praise him with thanksgiving. If you believe He is angry against you, you will come to him with fear and trying to appease his anger. And you don't know when His anger will be over. Such a god keeps you in a perpetual psychological anguish. That is the typical kind of god we usually worship. That is the typical god approved by authority.”

“You don't need anyone to tell you what to believe or who to worship,....You don't need to follow any set of rituals. You don't need to worry about an angry God not allowing you into heaven. You don't need to march into these great temples of intolerance and be told what is God's inerrant and infallible word, because the simple truth is that nobody really knows that...All I know is that you're not slaves and you're not part of any grand master plan. ...you are all God's children....You create your own destiny. And you need to accept that responsibility and put aside your egocentricity and stop looking for excuses in tired old myths. You make your own fate every single day. You need to look after each other. You need to look after the land that feeds you and gives you the air you breathe. You need to assume your duty toward all of God's creation. And you need to accept the credit for the good and take the blame for the bad.”
