MORSEL FOR MEDITATION
There are three kinds of faith in Christ:
1. Struggling faith, like a man in deep water desperately swimming.
2. Clinging faith, like a man hanging to the side of a boat.
3. Resting faith, like a man safely within the boat (and able to reach out with a hand to help someone else get in).
-Dwight Lyman Moody
"A writer who says that there are no truths, or that all truth is 'merely relative,' is asking you not to believe him. So don't."
-Roger Scruton,
Modern Philosophy: An Introduction and Survey
The atheist who seriously studies religion in order to attack it is closer to the spirit of God than the bovine believer who supports religion because it is comfortable, respectable, and offers consolation without thought.
-Sydney J. Harris
