I have examined all the known superstitions of the world,
and I do not find in our particular superstition of christianity one redeeming feature.
They are all alike founded on fables and mythology.
Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity,
have been burnt, tortured, fined and imprisoned.
What has been the effect of this coercion?
To make one half the world fools and the other half hypocrites;
to support roguery and error all over the earth.
