Found it referred to in an essay by Kent Gramm. From The Second Coming.
Of course it is much longer than this. Thank you.
 
Excerpts:
There are only two classes of people, the believers and the unbelievers.
The only difficulty is deciding which is the more feckless.

... As unacceptable as believers are, unbelievers are even worse.

... The present day unbeliever is crazy because he finds himself born
into a world of endless wonders, having no notion how he got here, a
world in which he eats, sleeps ... works, grows old, gets sick, and
dies, and... Not once in his entire life does it cross his mind to say
to himself that his situation is preposterous...

... The more intelligent he is, the crazier he is... He is as insane as
a French intellectual.
