Religion is absolutely unfathomable. Always and everywhere one can dig more deeply into infinities.

In the world of language, or in other words in the world of art and liberal education, religion necessarily appears as mythology or as Bible.

Set religion free, and a new humanity will begin.

The difference between religion and morality lies simply in the classical division of things into the divine and the human, if one only interprets this correctly.

Religion is not only a part of education, an element of humanity, but the center of everything else, always the first and the ultimate, the absolutely original.

The enemy is not just terrorism. It is the threat posed specifically by Islamist terrorism, by Bin Ladin and others who draw on a long tradition of extreme intolerance within a minority strain of Islam that does not distinguish politics from religion, and distorts both.

If faith is lost, there is no security and there is no life for him who does not adhere to religion.

Religion is the last refuge of human savagery.

I don't normally talk about my religion publicly because I don't want people to associate me and my flaws with this beautiful thing. And I believe it is beautiful if you learn it the right way.

I'm not defined by where I came from. I never took part in the rules and hatred that sometimes go along with religion. But if my parents are happy with what they believe, then I'm happy to stay out of their way. We agree to disagree.
