Chew on this essay written shortly before he died. (Oh, I'll provide a source, too, which you didn't.)

" There is no more proof that the Bible is the Word of God, than that the Koran of Mahomet is the Word of God. "

"Where is the evidence that the person called Jesus Christ is the begotten Son of God? "

"Where is the evidence that the person called Jesus Christ is the begotten Son of God? "

"The Christian religion is derogatory to the Creator in all its articles. It puts the Creator in an inferior point of view, and places the Christian devil above Him. "

"The Christian religion begins with a dream and ends with a murder. "

"As to the book called the Bible, it is blasphemy to call it the Word of God. It is a book of lies and contradictions, and a history of bad times and bad men. There are but a few good characters in the whole book. The fable of Christ and his twelve apostles, which is a parody on the sun and the twelve signs of the zodiac, copied from the ancient religions of the eastern world, is the least hurtful part. "
