freethinkers

If there was any great lesson in life it was this: No battle was ever won with silence.

Logically, this kind of atheism did not prove that there was no God.... On the contrary, Southwell was typical in placing the onus probandi on those who affirmed the existence of God and Holyoake regarded himself as an atheist only in his inability to believe what the churches would have him believe. They were content to show that the Christian concept of the supernatural was meaningless, that the arguments in its favor were illogical, and that the mysteries of the universe, insofar as they were explicable, could be accounted for in material terms.

It's tough to get out of one's inherited imbecilic culture, and a thus inherited or endowed lunatic belief system. A freethinker must overcome every deadened system. Especially one's own.

If you were born with the ability to change someone__ perspective or emotions, never waste that gift. It is one of the most powerful gifts God can give__he ability to influence.

Science explains the how.Philosophy explains the why.Free-thinkers need both.

We are the anarchists your parents warned you about.

Let us forget that we are Baptists, Methodists, Catholics, Presbyterians, or Free-thinkers, and remember only that we are men and women. After all, man and woman are the highest possible titles. All other names belittle us, and show that we have, to a certain extent, given up our individuality, and have consented to wear the collar of authority__hat we are followers. Throwing away these names, let us examine these questions not as partisans, but as human beings with hopes and fears in common.
