>Voltaire
Based.
>Voltaire, in the course of a dinner given one day for his friends -- that is, for the impious -- rejoiced that of all those present, there was not one who believed in religion.
>And yet he himself did believe, as he was to show at the hour of his death.
>Then he demanded with great earnestness that a priest should be brought to him that he might make his peace with God.
>But it was too late. God, against whom he had fought and spoken with such fury all his life, dealt with him as He had with Antiochus: He abandoned him to the fury of the devils
