“The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God.

“It cannot be doubted that theistic belief is a comfort and a solace to those who hold it, and that the loss of it is a very painful loss. It cannot be doubted, at least, by many of us in this generation, who either profess it now, or received it in our childhood and have parted from it since with such searching trouble as only cradle-faiths can cause. We have seen the spring sun shine out of an empty heaven, to light up a soulless earth; we have felt with utter loneliness that the Great Companion is dead.” LightEarthBeliefHeavenFeltCausesLossSunGenerationsTroubleAtheismChildhoodLonelinessComfortSpringEmptyOur ChildrenShiningPainfulPositive AtheismCompanionCradleSolaceDoubtedLight UpThis GenerationSun ShinesSoulless Book:The Ethics of Belief and Other Essays Source: The Ethics of Belief and Other Essays
“How on earth can religious people believe in so much arbitrary, clearly invented balderdash?....The acceptance of a creed, any creed, entitles the acceptor to membership in the sort of artificial extended family we call a congregation. It is a way to fight loneliness.
