The Word Heretic Ought To Be A

A Ground Frequently Taken By Christian Theologians Is That The Progress And Civilization Of The World Are Due To Christianity; And The Discussion Is Complicated By The Fact That Many Eminent Servants Of Humanity Have Been Nominal Christians, Of One Or Other Of The Sects. My Allegation Will Be That The Special Services Rendered To Human Progress By These Exceptional Men Have Not Been In Consequence Of Their Adhesion To Christianity, But In Spite Of It, And That The Specific Points Of Advantage To Human Kind Have Been In Ratio Of Their Direct Opposition To Precise Biblical Enactments.

Atheism Is Without God. It Does Not Assert No God.

On The Cross The Jesus Of The Four Gospels, Who Was God, Cried Out My God, My God, Why Hast Thou Forsaken Me? God Cannot Forsake Himself, Jesus Was God Himself. Yet God Forsook Jesus, And The Latter Cried Out To Know Why He Was Forsaken. Any Able Divine Will Explain That Of Course He Knew, And That He Was Not Forsaken. The Explanation Renders It Difficult To Believe The Dying Cry, And The Passage Becomes One Of The Mysteries Of The Holy Christian Religion, Which, Unless A Man Rightly Believe, Without Doubt He Shall Perish Everlastingly.

Without Free Speech No Search For Truth Is Possible; Without Free Speech No Discovery Of Truth Is Useful.

Atheists Would Teach Men To Be Moral Now, Not Because God Offers As An Inducement Reward By And By, But Because In The Virtuous Act Itself Immediate Good Is Insured To The Doer And The Circle Surrounding Him.
