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

There is no hope for the world unless power can be tamed, and brought into the service, not of this or that group of fanatical tyrants, but of the whole human race, white and yellow and black, fascist and communist and democrat; for science has made it inevitable that all must live or all must die.” MenWorldHumansMadeWholeDiesBlackWhiteRaceGroupsDevilDemocratMade ItFormerInevitableHuman RaceAcquireCommunistTyrantsYellowCompelledFascistsNo HopeTamed Author:Bertrand Russell
