“When I was three, I fell and I got Bell's palsy in my face. My mom said the first day she called the rabbi, and he said a prayer for me but nothing happened. The second day she called the Mormons, and they said a prayer for me and my face was healed, so my whole life was going around as a Jew who was giving talks in Mormon churches about being healed by the Mormons.” GivingFirstsSaidWholeFacesThreeChurchPrayerHappenedMomJewMy MomWhole LifeBellsThey SaidHealedRabbi Author:Roseanne Barr

“The awful atrocities of religion happened when people assume that God shares your likes and dislikes. The Crusaders when into battle to kill Muslims and Jews and cried, "God will's it." That was their battle cry. Obviously God willed no such thing. The Crusaders were simply projecting onto a deity they'd created on their own image and likeness, all their hatred and loathing of these faiths and made it endorse some of their most awful prejudices and lethal prejudices.” PeopleMadeHappenedShareCryBattleHatredPrejudiceAssumingJewLikesGods WillAwfulMade ItDislikeCriedDeitiesAtrocitiesLoathingLikes And DislikesBattle Cry Author:Karen Armstrong
