I’m a sucker for nice religious leaders. I fall for it every time.  (Religious Leaders Quotes) Various philosophers and religious leaders tried to convince their disciples and followers that animals are nothing more than machines without a soul, without feelings. However, anyone who has ever lived with an animal-be it a dog, a bird, or even a mouse-knows that this theory is a brazen lie, invented to justify cruelty  (Religious Leaders Quotes) History, I believe, furnishes no example of a priest-ridden people maintaining a free civil government. This marks the lowest grade of ignorance of which their civil as well as religious leaders will always avail themselves for their own purposes  (Religious Leaders Quotes) The facts are plain: Religious leaders who preside over marriage ceremonies must and will be guided by what they believe. If they do not wish to celebrate marriages for same-sex couples, that is their right. The Supreme Court says so. And the Charter says so  (Religious Leaders Quotes) People get cranky when you burst their bubble. Over time, advances in astronomy have relentlessly reinforced the utter insignificance of Earth on a celestial scale. Fortunately, political and religious leaders stopped barbecuing astronomers for saying so, turning their spits with human-rights activists instead  (Religious Leaders Quotes) The worst sinners, according to Jesus, are not the harlots and publicans, but the religious leaders with their insistence on proper dress and grooming, their careful observance of all the rules, their precious concern for status symbols, their strict legality, their pious patriotism... the haircut becomes the test of virtue in a world where Satan deceives and rules by appearances  (Religious Leaders Quotes) The truth is that male religious leaders have had - and still have - an option to interpret holy teachings either to exalt or subjugate women. They have, for their own selfish ends, overwhelmingly chosen the latter  (Religious Leaders Quotes) Religious leaders could play a significant role in making explicit the connections between current concerns for the environment and age-old teachings about our dependence on the natural world, and the dangers of greed and excess  (Religious Leaders Quotes) It is not unusual to hear a religious leader, a philosopher, or a poet refer to man as having a divine spark within him. Such characterizations infer that man possesses great abilities and potentials. We are frequently admonished to develop our capabilities, reach out, and set high goals for ourselves  (Religious Leaders Quotes) They [the disciples] were testifying to the resurrection, a question of fact, not merely of faith. They were convinced of an event. And their willingness to die for attesting to that event is far more convincing that the willingness of others to die for a mere belief or because of loyalty to a religion or religious leader  (Religious Leaders Quotes) All religious leaders and spiritual teachers emphasize finding a place within us that is true. People who obsessively follow these leaders instead of their own purpose attach to the spiritual leader and become fanatical and controlling. That’s why Jesus tried to tell his followers not to get attached to outward form  (Religious Leaders Quotes) If professional religious leaders can [no longer] instruct..., our artists and creative writers can perhaps step into this priestly role and bring fresh insight to our lost and damaged world  (Religious Leaders Quotes) I have no religious belief myself, but I don’t think we should fight about it. In particular, I think that we should not rubbish moderate religious leaders like the Archbishop of Canterbury because I think we all agree that extreme fundamentalism is a threat, and we need all the allies we can muster against it  (Religious Leaders Quotes) I pray that politicians, lawmakers and religious leaders have the courage to support the choices terminally ill citizens make in departing Mother Earth with dignity and love.  (Religious Leaders Quotes) About 3 million IVF babies have been born since Louise Brown’s birth in 1978. Bizarrely, when this life-giving treatment was first considered, it was massively controversial. A storm of vitriolic protest came from many religious leaders, journalists, politicians, regrettably even other scientists and doctors.  (Religious Leaders Quotes) The leaders who we admire who have been able to bring great change in the past - Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela - they’re all inspirational religious leaders and smart tacticians. It would be nice to find the Muslim Gandhi, wouldn’t it?  (Religious Leaders Quotes) I want to know where joy lives. I’d interview scientists, religious leaders and heads of state. I’d want to find out exactly what makes people happy. I’d want to look into the biology, the chemistry of the human brain.  (Religious Leaders Quotes) But it’s more an up-versus-down issue because the research has shown that opinion leaders, whether they’re elected officials, journalists, business leaders - it’s academics, religious leaders - they have dramatically different views on immigration. A  (Religious Leaders Quotes) Decisions of character come from understanding that they are accountable to God only, not to family, spouses, religious leaders, corporations, public opinion or your own ego.  (Religious Leaders Quotes) I’m not a follower of this or that religious leader. More wars are started because of religious leaders, and people are following and they don’t know why... That is religiosity. That is what turns people into robots.  (Religious Leaders Quotes) It is a real tragedy for a nation when three groups of it’s people, namely politicians, religious leaders and charity workes, just pretend to be generous.  (Religious Leaders Quotes) Religious leaders need to be held accountable for their ideas  (Religious Leaders Quotes) Religious leaders will always avail themselves of public ignorance for their own purpose  (Religious Leaders Quotes) A strong case can be made for religious leaders to speak out on political issues  (Religious Leaders Quotes) When religious leaders get involved in elections, it is usually with a reactionary social agenda  (Religious Leaders Quotes) World belongs to humanity, not this leader, that leader or that king or prince or religious leader. World belongs to humanity  (Religious Leaders Quotes) Religious people are not entitled to special rights, even if they are elected leaders or in the majority; they are not allowed to force everyone to support their religion  (Religious Leaders Quotes) The Divine Thing that made itself the foundation of the Church does not seem, to judge by his comments on the religious leadership of his day, to have hoped much from officers of a church  (Religious Leaders Quotes) I want to know where joy lives. I’d interview scientists, religious leaders and heads of state. I’d want to find out exactly what makes people happy. I’d want to look into the biology, the chemistry of the human brain  (Religious Leaders Quotes) The Catholic Church - it's so difficult because I don't want say anything offensive but it makes me very angry that religious leaders from this faith have tried to respond negatively to sexual education and to the promotion of condom use  (Religious Leaders Quotes)
