    Most amusing. Could you please give me the reference for the Churchill quote please. I have looked through my books but cannot find it.

    Try:
    The more I study religion, the more I am convinced that man never worshipped anything but himself.

    Found it now. You took it from your religious website: http://discussions.godandscience.org/about424-45.html

    I see that the poster of this quote didn't attribute the quote...or do you have another source?

    I was under the impression he attributed it to Winston. If you don't think it's correct, I'll fix it to read Anonymous.

    A couple which I think are worthy of this little game of tennis Darfius wishes to play:

    "I wish to propose for the reader's favourable consideration a doctrine which may, I fear, appear wildly paradoxical and subversive. The doctrine in question is this: that it is undesirable to believe a proposition when there is no ground whatever for supposing it true." - Bertrand Russell

    "My spell-checker lacks the word 'creationism' in its dictionary, so each time that word is encountered, an alternative pops up at the bottom of my screen, 'cretinism'" - E.T. Babinski

    and my personal favourite...

    "Remember there is a big difference between kneeling down and bending over" - Frank Zappa (Heavenly bank account, 1981)

    An atheist is a guy who watches a Notre Dame-SMU football game and doesn't care who wins.

    If there were no God, there would be no atheists.
