"I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do because I notice it always coincides with their own desires."
fwiw, I also liked the following quote attributed to an unnamed Usenet user: You know your god is man-made when he hates all the same people you do.
and this one from H.L. Mencken: "We must respect the other fellow's religion, but only in the sense and to the extent that we respect his theory that his wife is beautiful and his children smart."
No GOOGLING please !!!
and if you know the answer, please don't post it here ... this is for "guessers" only ... thanks ...

1. Fantastic quote, but no idea who said it. |

my guess - Einstein, I know he has made many statements about religion and the statement seems like it could be from someone who is analytical. (So now I can be REALLY embarrased when it's a comedian)
