 Robert A. Heinlein
Heinlein's skepticism is on display especially in his Lazarus Long-Future History series, and his famous novel about a Man from Mars, briefly titled The Heretic, but published in 1961 — the year that it won a Hugo Award — as Stranger in a Strange Land.
Stranger is described as "an amazingly iconoclastic and complex satire of sex and religion." The title character is a Christ-like figure and communion is compared to ritual cannibalism.
It is a truism that almost any sect, cult, or religion will legislate its creed into law if it acquires the political power to do so, and will follow it by suppressing opposition, subverting all education to seize early the minds of the young, and by killing, locking up, or driving underground all heretics.
