Asimov on religion

Author Isaac Asimov had some strongly held views of organized religion. He made a few memorable quotes:

To surrender to ignorance and call it God has always been premature, and it remains premature today.

***

Asimov perfectly summed up his religious views by saying "I don't have the evidence to prove that God doesn't exist, but I so strongly suspect that he doesn't that I don't want to waste my time.

***

It seems to me that God is a convenient invention of the human mind.
