It will probably will not be long until the churches will divide as sharply upon political, as upon theological questions; and when that day comes, if there are not liberals enough to hold the balance of power, this Government will be destroyed. The liberty of man is not safe in the hands of any church. Wherever the Bible and sword are in partnership, man is a slave. 1879 ~ Robert G. Ingersoll
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Robert G. Ingersoll
Leaders that wear the largest hats have few armies to attack a land so this leads them to be sly and cunning as they extend their hand. ~ Stanley Victor Paskavich
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Stanley Victor Paskavich
In the blood-heat of pursuing the enemy, many people are forgetting what we are fighting for. We are fighting for our hard-won liberty and freedom; for our Constitution and the due processes of our laws; and for the right to differ in ideas, religion and politics. I am convinced that in your zeal to fight against our enemies, you, too, have forgotten what you are fighting for. ~ Julia Child
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Julia Child
We have this idea in our minds that there's this separation of church and state in America, which I think is a good thing. And we extend that to our politics - not just church and state, but it's also there's a separation of religion and politics. But of course there isn't. ~ Stephen Colbert
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Stephen Colbert
Art has often been and continues to be considered transcendent. I see this as misguided and, in fact, a way of subverting the powerful voice art can be in global discussions about politics, economics, society, culture, religion and international relations. ~ Aman Mojadidi
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Aman Mojadidi
[Asked by an audience member at a public Q&A session] Considering that atheism cannot possibly have any sense of 'absolute morality', would it not then be an irrational leap of faith – which atheists themselves so harshly condemn – for an atheist to decide between right and wrong?
[Dawkins] Absolute morality...the absolute morality that a religious person might profess would include, what, stoning people for adultery? Death for apostasy? [...] These are all things which are religiously-based absolute moralities. I don't think I want an absolute morality; I think I want a morality that is thought out, reasoned, argued, discussed, and based on – you could almost say intelligent design. [...]
If you actually look at the moralities that are accepted among modern people – among 21st century people – we don't believe in slavery anymore; we believe in equality of women; we believe in being gentle; we believe in being kind to animals...these are all things which are entirely recent. They have very little basis in Biblical or Koranic scripture. They are things that have developed over historical time; through a consensus of reasoning, sober discussion, argument, legal theory, political and moral philosophy. These do not come from religion. To the extent that you can find the 'good bits' in religious scriptures, you have to cherry-pick. You search your way through the Bible or the Koran, and you find the occasional verse that is an acceptable profession of morality – and ~ Richard Dawkins
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Richard Dawkins
Science is not enough, religion is not enough, art is not enough, politics and economics is not enough, nor is love, nor is duty, nor is action however disinterested, nor, however sublime, is contemplation. Nothing short of everything will really do. ~ Aldous Huxley
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Aldous Huxley
As little children we readily accept the first story we're given at home, or school, or church. We're told stories of nationalism, religion, racism, politics, and family. All too often we accept them before we learn to weigh them against other views. And all too often we're inclined to accept these (or other) frozen views rather than see each situation for what it is. ~ Steve Hagen
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Steve Hagen
Faith and politics are now one and the same," he went on. "Perhaps it was always so, but it seems to have reached new extremes in our troubled century, do you not think? A man's religion tells me where his political loyalties lie, far more than his place of birth or his language. ~ S.J. Parris
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by S.J. Parris
Reformed rabbis are generally political in nature. It's almost like Islam, radicalized Islam in a way, to where it is just radicalized Islam is less about religion than it is about politics. When you look at the Reform Judaism, it is more about politics. ~ Glenn Beck
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Glenn Beck
Climate change, oh climate change, religion dressed as science! If we keep consuming, the world we'll be dooming, 'till the government forces compliance! Algae blooms and monsoons, we had them all along, but how dare we ask if science can ever be wrong? ~ Rebecca McNutt
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Rebecca McNutt
To a modern student, pre-industrial politics appear to be virtually soaked in religion, both in the sense that rulers devoted much attention to religious questions [...] and in the sense that everyone talked endlessly about it, justifying and vilifying a vast range of action in religious terms. [...]

... the pre-modern world was poor in organization. Modern people are members of an immense variety of associations, both local and nationwide, or indeed international, being organized as voters, artists, scholars, scientists, antivivisectionists, devotees of this sport or that, consumers and so forth in addition to (if they so wish) as believers. But pre-industrial society was less differentiated, less wealthy and far less well equipped with means of communication. Hence there might be little or no organization above the level of household or village apart from that provided by religion. This automatically endowed religion with political importance, [...] but it also meant that religion united under its umbrella numerous activities that would nowadays be pursued under umbrellas of their own. [...] Pre-modern religion could be about anything and everything. ~ Patricia Crone
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Patricia Crone
When you have people together who believe in something very strongly - whether it's religion or politics or unions - things happen. ~ Cesar Chavez
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Cesar Chavez
Although I was too tactful to ask about politics or religion, I learned that she was socially and economically progressive. She believed in birth control, gun control, and rent control; she believed in the liberation of homosexuals and civil rights for all; she believed in Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr., and Thich Nhat Hanh; she believed in nonviolence, world peace, and yoga; she believed in the revolutionary potential of disco and the United Nations of nightclubs; she believed in national self-determination for the Third World as well as liberal democracy and regulated capitalism, which was, she said, to believe that the invisible hand of the market should wear the kid glove of socialism. Her ~ Viet Thanh Nguyen
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Viet Thanh Nguyen
Skip the religion and politics, head straight to the compassion. Everything else is a distraction. ~ Talib Kweli
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Talib Kweli
As long as I don't write about the government, religion, politics, and other institutions, I am free to print anything. ~ Pierre Beaumarchais
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Pierre Beaumarchais
Following religious principles because you fear the consequences isn't faith…. It's superstition. ~ T. Rafael Cimino
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by T. Rafael Cimino
The great genius of the Shiah was its tragic perception that it is impossible fully to implement the ideals of religion in the inescapably violent realm of politics. ~ Karen Armstrong
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Karen Armstrong
It just so happened that they agreed on politics and religion. It was precisely that agreement that has caused most observers to associate them with one another. ~ Joseph Pearce
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Joseph Pearce
I found most of my friends quite content to be used as tax-material, even though the sums of money taken from them were employed against their own beliefs and interests. They had lived so long under the system of using others, and then in their turn being used by them, that they were like hypnotized subjects, and looked on this subjecting and using of each other as a part of the necessary and even Providential order of things. The great machine had taken possession of their souls. ~ Auberon Herbert
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Auberon Herbert
If god is the root cause for our degradation destroy that god. If it is religion destroy it. If it is Manu Darma, Gita, or any other Mythology (Purana), burn them to ashes. If it is temple, tank, or festival, boycott them. Finally if it is our politics, come forward to declare it openly. ~ Periyar E.V. Ramasamy
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Periyar E.V. Ramasamy
Only fanatics - in religion as well as in politics - can find a meaning in someone else's death. ~ Elie Wiesel
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Elie Wiesel
My final thought now is that as in religion and the arts, so in politics; if men do not balance their feelings and intelligence they lose command of both - and worse still, of their object. ~ Sean O'Faolain
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Sean O'Faolain
The opinions that are held with passion are always those for which no good ground exists; indeed the passion is the measure of the holders lack of rational conviction. Opinions in politics and religion are almost always held passionately. ~ Bertrand Russell
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Bertrand Russell
If we conservatives "of color" refuse to promote the welfare state, unfettered abortion, affirmative action, and massive immigration, we are guilty of "selling out. ~ Michelle Malkin
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Michelle Malkin
Differences in religious beliefs, politics, social status, and position are all secondary. When we look at someone with compassion, we are able to see beyond these secondary differences and connect to the primary essence that binds all humans together as one. ~ Dalai Lama
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Dalai Lama
What is a wife and what is a harlot? What is a church and what is a theatre? are they two and not one? Can they exist separate? Are not religion and politics the same thing? Brotherhood is religion. O demonstrations of reason dividing families in cruelty and pride! ~ William Blake
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by William Blake
Two things which are the peculiar domain of the heart, not the mind - politics and religion. He doesn't want to know the other side. He wants arguments and statistics for his own side, and nothing more. ~ Mark Twain
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Mark Twain
When religion and politics ride in the same cart, the whirlwind follows. ~ Frank Herbert
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Frank Herbert
The morning after the 9/11 attacks...we began talking about the Twin Towers attack. Ruud shook his head sadly about it all. He said, "It's so weird, isn't it, all these people saying this has to do with Islam?"
I couldn't help myself...I blurted out, "But it *is* about Islam. This is based in belief. This is Islam."
Ruud said, "Ayaan, of course these people may have been Muslims, but they are a lunatic fringe. We have extremist Christians, too, who interpret the bible literally. Most Muslims do not believe these things. To say so is to disparage a faith which is the second largest religion in the world, and which is civilized, and peaceful."
I walked into the office thinking, "I have to wake these people up."...The Dutch had forgotten that it was possible for people to stand up and wage war, destroy property, imprison, kill, impose laws of virtue because of the call of God. That kind of religion hadn't been present in Holland for centuries. It was not a lunatic fringe who felt this way about America and the West. I knew that a vast mass of Muslims would see the attacks as justified retaliation against the infidel enemies of Islam. ~ Ayaan Hirsi Ali
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Ayaan Hirsi Ali
My father's politics were old-fashioned in the sense that he used to say, all the time, "You've got to fight the system!" But my spiritual beliefs have led me to believe that the fight is the problem. ~ Marianne Williamson
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Marianne Williamson
I'm not involved in the politics of religion, but I love what the message is. ~ Jane Seymour
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Jane Seymour
Politics and Religion are obsolete. The time has come for Science and Spirituality. ~ Jawaharlal Nehru
Religion Politics Beliefs quotes by Jawaharlal Nehru
Some settlers began with no implements but an ax. In conversation, the subject of axes
their ideal weight, their proper helves
was more popular than politics or religion. A man who made good axes, who knew the secrets of tempering the steel and getting the center of gravity right, received the celebrity of an artist and might act accordingly. The best ax maker in southern Indiana was "a dissolute, drunken genius, named Richardson." Men who really knew how to chop became famous, too. An ax blow requires the same timing of weight shift and wrist action as a golf swing, and as in golf those who where good at it taught others; sometimes all the men in one district learned their stroke from the same axman extraordinaire. A good stroke had a "sweetness" similar to the sound of a well-struck golf or tennis ball, and gave a satisfaction which moved the work along. ~ Ian Frazier
