"To say that atheism requires faith is as dim-witted as saying that disbelief in pixies or leprechauns takes faith. Even if Einstein himself told me there was an elf on my shoulder, I would still ask for proof and I wouldn’t be wrong to ask."

"The message of Christianity is irrelevant to me because it's completely empty and ultimately untrue. It is not a religion of love any more than Islam is a religion of peace.
