You have options. You can either continue to be miserable or you can just stop being angry at everyone and accept the way things are. Allow yourself … - Ricky Gervais

Religion's greatest trick wasn't making some people believe there was a God, it was telling you you shouldn't ever ridicule the ide, that it was sacred, to question this dogma> And of course it's not. As a scieentist,philosopher and comic that is something that is really important to me. NOTHING is sacrad.

We are on a rock travelling around 1 of 100 billion stars. Our species is 1 of over half a billion that have ever existed. Our chances of being born are about 1 in 400 trillion. You're not special, but you are fucking lucky. Enjoy your amazing life. You'll never exist again.

Why don’t you believe in God? I get that question all the time. I always try to give a sensitive, reasoned answer. This is usually awkward, time consuming and pointless. People who believe in God don’t need proof of his existence, and they certainly don’t want evidence to the contrary. They are happy with their belief. They even say things like “it’s true to me” and “it’s faith.” I still give my logical answer because I feel that not being honest would be patronizing and impolite. It is ironic therefore that “I don’t believe in God because there is absolutely no scientific evidence for his existence and from what I’ve heard the very definition is a logical impossibility in this known universe” comes across as both patronizing and impolite.
