• Religion promotes the hatred and spite against gays. From my point of view, I would ban religion completely. Organised religion doesn't seem to work. It turns people into really hateful lemmings and it's not really compassionate.

• Hay que admitir que tengo varios huesos... campos de guerra enteros llenos de huesos, de hecho... para picar con la religión organizada de cualquier tipo. Esto debe verse como una crítica a los organismos puramente temporales que, en mi opinión, han erigido más obstáculos entre cualquier noción de espiritualidad y Divinidad que uno suscriba que puertas han abierto. Para mí, la diferencia entre la Divinidad y la Iglesia es la diferencia entre Elvis y el coronel Parker... aunque eso evoca imágenes de Dios muriéndose en el retrete, que no es lo que quería decir en absoluto.

• Philip is being very vocal about it. For me, I don't think the story isn't at all anti-religious in any way. I think what's it more against is the control and the misuse of power that any organised religion, or any political organisation exercises over the people they're supposed to represent. I think that, for me, is what's important in the movie.

• The spectacle of what is called religion, or at any rate organised religion, in India and elsewhere, has filled me with horror and I have frequently condemned it and wished to make a clean sweep of it. Almost always it seemed to stand for blind belief and reaction, dogma and bigotry, superstition, exploitation and the preservation of vested interests.

• In Europe, where climate change absolutism is at its strongest, the quasi-religion of greenery in general and the climate change issue in particular have filled the vacuum of organised religion, with reasoned questioning of its mantras regarded as a form of blasphemy.

• Me encanta la idea de las enseñanzas de Jesucristo y las bonitas historias sobre él, que me encantaban en la escuela dominical y coleccionaba todas las pegatinas y las ponía en mi libro. Pero la realidad es que la religión organizada no parece funcionar. Convierte a la gente en lemmings odiosos y no es realmente compasiva.
