**"There is no good to hope for, no evil to fear after death. Therefore make wise use of the time by living well and enjoying soberly, peacefully and joyfully, if you can, the goods of life and the fruits of your labors, for this is the best course you can take, since death puts an end to all knowledge and feeling of good or evil."
(Jean Meslier / Priest / 1664-1729 / Testament)**

A quotation from Roberts, Stephen F.
I contend we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.
Stephen F. Roberts (b. c. 1969) American software developer
Usenet, alt.atheism, sig line (early 1995)

Bertrand Russell — Fear the Foundation of Religion
"Religion is based, I think, primarily and mainly upon fear. It is partly the terror of the unknown, and partly, as I have said, the wish to feel that you have a kind of elder brother who will stand by you in all your troubles and disputes.
Fear is the basis of the whole thing—fear of the mysterious, fear of defeat, fear of death. Fear is the parent of cruelty, and therefore it is no wonder if cruelty and religion has gone hand-in-hand. It is because fear is at the basis of those two things. In this world we can now begin a little to understand things, and a little to master them by help of science, which has forced its way step by step against the Christian religion, against the Churches, and against the opposition of all the old precepts.
Science can help us to get over this craven fear in which mankind has lived for so many generations. Science can teach us, and I think our own hearts can teach us, no longer to look round for imaginary supports, no longer to invent allies in the sky, but rather to look to our own efforts here below to make this world a fit place to live in, instead of the sort of place that the churches in all these centuries have made it."
Bertrand Russell, Why I Am Not a Christian (1927) FEAR THE FOUNDATION OF RELIGION
Why I Am Not a Christian is a 1927 essay by British philosopher Bertrand Russell that was hailed by The Independent as "devastating in its use of cold logic" and is listed in the New York Public Library's list of the most influential books of the 20th century. It was originally a talk given 6 March 1927 at Battersea Town Hall, under the auspices of the South London Branch of the National Secular Society. It was published that year as a pamphlet and was later published, with other essays, in the 1967 book, Why I Am Not a Christian: And Other Essays on Religion and Related Subjects.
Along with What I Believe (1925) Why I Am Not a Christian (1927) ranks for many as articulate examples of Russell's thoughts. The ideas contained within were and still often are, considered controversial, contentious and - to some of the religious - blasphemous.

Outstanding statements from early atheist Matthias Knutzen:
"First, there is neither a God nor a devil; secondly, magistrates are not to be valued, churches are to be despised, and priests rejected; thirdly, instead of magistrates and priests, we have learning and reason, which, joined with conscience, teach us to live honestly, to hurt no man, and to give every one his due; fourthly, matrimony does not differ from fornication; fifthly, there is but one life, which is this, after which there are neither rewards nor punishments; the holy Scripture is inconsistent with itself."
-Micrcelii syntagma historic ecclesiasticce [1699]
