“We hear from time to time about horrible human rights atrocities happening around the globe. Our government claims that it stands in favor of human rights, and our leaders are in the news demanding consequences for other countries that are abusing their populations. But there is a huge denial about how widespread and common these kinds of atrocities are in the United States, and that we are not nearly as different from other countries as we would like to believe we are.” BelieveHumansKindChildrenDifferentCountryStatesGovernmentUnitedCommonLeaderUnited StatesRightsHugeNewsHappeningsConsequenceClaimsHuman RightsPopulationFavorsHorribleDenialOther CountriesGlobesAtrocities Author:Lundy Bancroft
“I believe that what works for the consumer is to be able to determine what they can pay -- even if it is nothing. (Just joking.) Unfortunately, so many depend on credit for living expenses, and the lower payments helped them in the immediate term. I am OK with that. For those who want their minimum to be more, you don't have to wait on your credit issuer to increase the payment -- do it on your own. For others, at this time, I think it's a horrible idea.” IfsThinkingWantBelieveIdeasAbleI BelieveWaitingTermPayDependsIncreaseDetermineCreditHorribleConsumersExpensesMinimumPayment Author:Trina

“I believe that fallen creatures perish, perish for ever, for only good can live, and good has not been theirs; but how durst men forge our Saviour's words "eternal death " into so horrible a meaning?

“The most horrible wickedness and cruelties, and the greatest miseries that have troubled the human race began with this thing called revelation, or revealed religion. ... It would be far, far better for us to let a thousand devils roam the world, and publicly preach the doctrine of devils (if there were such a thing, which there isn't), than to let one impostor and monster such a Moses, Joshua, Samuel or the Bible prophets come speaking the so-called word of God, and causing men to believe it.” IfsMenWorldBelieveHumansWould BeRaceThousandDevilMiseryMonstersHorribleDoctrineCrueltyHuman RaceProphetRevelationsWord Of GodWickednessMoses Author:Thomas Paine
“Christianity, just as much as Islam, teaches children that unquestioned faith is a virtue. You don't have to make the case for what you believe. If somebody announces that it is part of his faith, the rest of society, whether of the same faith, or another, or of none, is obliged, by ingrained custom, to "respect" it without question; respect it until the day it manifests itself in a horrible massacre like the destruction of the World Trade Center, or the London or Madrid bombings.” IfsWorldBelieveChildrenChristianityTeachCasesVirtueDestructionTradeIslamLondonHorribleCustomsObligedBombingMassacresWorld TradeWorld Trade CenterMadrid Author:Richard Dawkins
