Vi måste göra oss ett beläte av vår rädsla och det belätet ska vi kalla för Gud.

Another quote about Nature of God

God is stupidity and cowardice; God is hypocrisy and falsehood. God is tyranny and poverty; God is evil. For as long as men bow before altars, mankind will remain damned, the slaves of kings and priests.
