A quotation from Ingersoll

Christians have placed upon the throne of the universe a God of eternal hate. I cannot worship a being whose vengeance is boundless, whose cruelty is shoreless, and whose malice is increased by the agonies he inflicts.

Robert Green Ingersoll (1833–1899) American lawyer, freethinker, orator
Lecture (1881-05-01) “The Great Infidels,” Booth’s Theater, New York

A quotation from Robert Ingersoll

When we take into consideration the fact that a belief in the Trinity is absolutely essential to salvation, how unfortunate it was for the world that this doctrine was not established until the year 1274. Think of the millions that dropped into hell while these questions were being discussed.

A quotation from Ingersoll

Strange! that a world cursed by God, filled with temptations and thick with fiends, should be the only place where hope exists, the only place where man can repent, the only place where reform is possible! Strange! that heaven, filled with angels and presided over by God, is the only place where reformation is utterly impossible! Yet these are the teachings of all the believers in the eternity of punishment.

Lecture (1881-05-01) “The Great Infidels,” Booth’s Theater, New York City

A quotation from Christopher Marlowe

FAUSTUS: No, Faustus, curse thyself, curse Lucifer,
   That hath deprived thee of the joys of heaven.
      (The clock striketh twelve.)
   O, it strikes, it strikes! Now, body, turn to air,
   Or Lucifer will bear thee quick to hell.
      (Thunder and lightning.)
   O soul, be changed into little water drops,
   And fall into the ocean, ne’er be found!
   My God, my God, look not so fierce on me!
      (Enter Devils.)
   Adders, and serpents, let me breathe a while!
   Ugly hell, gape not. Come not Lucifer!
   I’ll burn my books! Ah, Mephistophilis!
      (Exeunt Devils with Faustus.)

Christopher "Kit" Marlowe (1564-1593) English dramatist and poet
The Tragicall History of the Life and Death of Doctor Faustus, Act 5, sc. 2 (sc. 19), l. 1498ff (1594; 1604 “A” text)
