I see your Ingersol and raise a Russell . . .

I particularly like this quote:

"While I am opposed to all orthodox creeds, I have a creed myself; and my creed is this. Happiness is the only good. The time to be happy is now. The place to be happy is here. The way to be happy is to make others so. This creed is somewhat short, but it is long enough for this life, strong enough for this world. If there is another world, when we get there we can make another creed." - Robert Green Ingersoll

Didn’t Einstein say that logic takes you from A to B, but imagination takes you wil take you everywhere?

Have you heard of Google?

According to this site...

[quora.com]

Einstein is Not the author of the quote.

@Gareth I did. But I didn’t fact check. I phrased my comment as a question bc I had some doubt about it.

@ArturoS [“Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.”
This is another fake motivational/inspirational quote attributed to Einstein. The first recorded instance I found of this quote is from The Ultimate Quotable Einstein (2010) by Alice Calaprice and Freeman Dyson on p. 481, however Alice lists the quote under the “Probably Not By Einstein” section.
There is no evidence Einstein ever said this quote, and frankly it doesn't sound like something Einstein would say, as he was a highly logical individual."] - quora.com

Good quote.

I'd never heard of Robert Ingersoll before. Thank you for this!

Great

Robert Ingersoll was a titan among Atheists. He was great.

I like it, apart from it admits the possibility of hell existing.

I took that as more of a rebuttal to his critics than a true endorsement of belief.

My favorite is
