I often asked Laplace what he thought of God. He owned that he was an atheist.

I would believe any religion that could prove it had existed since the beginning of the world. But when I see Socrates, Plato, Moses, and Mohammed I do not think there is such a one. All religions owe their origin to man.

You think you are too intelligent to believe in God. I am not like you.

All religions have been made by men.
