One of my favourite quotes. Franklin made quite a few catchy quips but this one is his best.
Another quote I love comes from Luis Bunuel: Thank God I'm an atheist.

This reminds me of some commentaries on the Matooblog:
j’aime beaucoup ta phrase “Dieu que je déteste les religions” c’est une figure de style qui doit avoir un nom mais j’ignore lequel.
C’est effectivement une figure de style, une “matouchondrie” pour être exact.
Autre exemple de matouchondrie: “Putain! Que la prostitution me révolte!” ou bien “La vache! Que j’aime le boeuf!”.
