Good Sense by baron d' Paul Henri Thiry Holbach
page 19 of 206 (09%)
121. All religious usages bear marks of stupidity and barbarism

122. The more a religious opinion is ancient and general, the more it
ought to be suspected

123. Mere scepticism in religious matters, can only be the effect of
a very superficial examination

124. Revelations examined

125. Where is the proof that God ever shewed himself to Men, or ever
spoke to them?

126. There is nothing that proves miracles to have been ever performed

127. If God has spoken, is it not strange that he should have spoken
so differently to the different religious sects?

128. Obscurity and suspicious origin of oracles

129. Absurdity of all miracles

130. Refutation of the reasoning of Pascal concerning the manner in which
we must judge of miracles

131. Every new revelation is necessarily false

132. The blood of martyrs testifies _against_ the truth of miracles, and
_against_ the divine origin attributed to Christianity
