“The priest invents and encourages every kind of suffering and distress so that man may not have the opportunity to become scientific, which requires a considerable degree of free time, health, and an outlook of confident positivism. Thus, the religious authorities work hard to make and keep people feeling sinful, unworthy, and unhappy.” PeopleMenKindMayHardFeelingsSufferingOpportunityReligiousHard WorkDegreesAuthorityUnhappyPriestsDistressOutlookUnworthyFree TimeTime HealsPositivism Author:Robert Sheaffer
“Envy and resentment are terribly corrosive passions. To suffer at the sight or even the thought of others' enjoyment of life makes one a committed enemy of human happiness. Such people end up being practically a curse upon the human race. They vandalize life, exerting themselves not in the pursuit of gain or pleasure, but to hinder others' enjoyment.” PeopleHumansEndsSufferingPassionPleasureRaceEnemyGainsSightCommittedEnvyPursuitCurseHuman RaceEnjoymentResentmentHinderHuman Happiness Book:The Making of the Messiah: Christianity and Resentment Source: The Making of the Messiah: Christianity and Resentment
