Christopher Hitchens
The essence of the independent mind lies not in what it thinks, but in how it thinks.
Christopher Hitchens, Letters to a Young Contrarian

Sam Harris
Tell a devout Christian that his wife is cheating on him, or that frozen yogurt can make a man invisible, and he is likely to require as much evidence as anyone else, and to be persuaded only to the extent that you give it. Tell him that the book he keeps by his bed was written by an invisible deity who will punish him with fire for eternity if he fails to accept its every incredible claim about the universe, and he seems to require no evidence what so ever.
Sam Harris, The End of Faith: Religion, Terror, and the Future of Reason
