The study of theology, as it stands in the Christian churches, is the study of nothing; it is founded on nothing; it rests on no principles; it proceeds by no authority; it has no data; it can demonstrate nothing; and it admits of no conclusion
Thomas Paine
Theology, not morality, is the first business on the church`s agenda of reform, and the church, not society, is the first target of divine criticism
Michael Scott Horton
Theology is never any help; it is searching in a dark cellar at midnight for a black cat that isn`t there. Theologians can persuade themselves of anything.
Robert A. Heinlein
What has `theology` ever said that is of the smallest use to anybody? When has `theology` ever said anything that is demonstrably true and is not obvious? What makes you think that `theology` is a subject at all?
Richard Dawkins
