Quote #3 on Religious Struggle Quotes >> Religious Powers and Coercion
“The religious argument that has to be supported by a musket, is hardly worth making. A prayer that must have a cannon behind it, better never be uttered. Forgiveness ought not to go in partnership with shot and shell. Love need not carry knives and revolvers.”
Source: "Centennial Oration," by Robert Green Ingersoll, 1876.
