"The Jehovah of the Jews is a suspicious……" — Baron d'Holbach

The Jehovah of the Jews is a suspicious tyrant, who breathes nothing… - Baron d'Holbach

"The Jehovah of the Jews is a suspicious tyrant, who breathes nothing but blood, murder, and carnage, and who demands that they should nourish him with the vapours of animals. The Jupiter of the Pagans is a lascivious monster. The Moloch of the Phoenicians is a cannibal. The pure mind of the Christians resolved, in order to appease his fury, to crucify his own son. The savage god of the Mexicans cannot be satisfied without thousands of mortals which are immolated to his sanguinary appetite."

— Baron d'Holbach
