Some Famous Atheist Quotes About God

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?”
_Epicurus

The word god is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation no matter how subtle can (for me) change this.
_Albert Einstein

I believe in Spinoza's God who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists, not in a God who concerns himself with the fates and actions of human beings.
_Albert Einstein

I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own -- a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body, although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotisms.
_Albert Einstein

We are all atheists about most of the gods that humanity has ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.
_Richard Dawkins

To you, I'm an atheist.
To God, I'm the loyal opposition.
_Woody Allen

If there is a God, Atheism must seem to him as less of an insult than religion.
_Edmond De Goncourt

In the name of god you kill in the name of your god
In the name of god you conquered in the name of your god
All religion should be wiped out
So that people may just live
What divides us is an illusion
Made up by men in their confusion
_Ziggy Marley

We must question the story logic of having an all-knowing all-powerful God, who creates faulty Humans, and then blames them for his own mistakes.
_Gene Roddenberry

If this is your God, he's not very impressive. He's got so many psychological problems; he's so insecure. He demands worship every seven days. He goes out and creates faulty humans and then blames them for his own mistakes. He's a pretty poor excuse for a supreme being.
_Gene Roddenberry

Owners of dogs will have noticed that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they will think you are god. Whereas owners of cats are compelled to realize that, if you provide them with food and water and shelter and affection, they draw the conclusion that they are gods.
_Christopher Hitchens
