Line 7:
* From a recent{{when}} issue of ''Readers Digest'': "Three Reasons to be Happy: The divorce rate in the United States has fallen by 13 percent since 2000. The average credit card debt is under $5,000 for the first time since 2002. Scientists have discovered that gorillas play tag."
* In the very beginning of [[Richard Dawkins]]' book ''The God Delusion'', he asks the reader to imagine a world with no religion. A world without suicide bombers, crusades, witch-hunts, middle eastern conflicts, persecution of Jews, the troubles in Northern Ireland... and no shiny-suited bouffant-haired televangelists.
** Not to mention the book's [[Long List]] which has been quoted countless times, in which he says, "The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all of fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully."{{context|reason=MOD: How is this subpoint an example of the trope as written? Or is the quote just here to bash its writer?}}
