"I defy my honored opponents to give me the name of a single man imprisoned in the United States, Great Britain, or West Germany for being an atheist.

Who has fought for freedom and obtained it - atheists or Christians?"

-- Richard Wurmbrand

Printed three and a half trillion dollars over seven years and flooded Wall Street with it.”
