Quote by DD Adair

“It's maddening been a Prophet. Like assembling a puzzle when the pieces are doled out erratically over time, and none of them fit until you have enough of them. And it's not like you have a convenient sample picture to go by. Probably you'll have twenty different puzzles going at once, and how should you know which event the pieces go to as they come? There will in fact come a day when Prophets are thought to be lunatics. And we'll accept it, because that's what it feels like.”

“A faulty understanding of science, along with rigorism and spiritual flattening in religion, termed scientism or biblicism, respectively, have taken hold of the Book of Man and lead in every way to a miserable, indeed abject, conception of History. There has been a will to reduce History to a universal law, on the pattern of the natural sciences (Ultimate Law of History, abbreviated to ULH). Or the revelations of scripture are presumptuously held for a gnomon, the shadow-stick of a sundial allowing calculation of the course of salvific History.

Sodass alles, was fragwürdig war, fraglos wird: die Apokalypse! – Das haltet ihr für ganz unmöglich? – Ich sage euch: Ihr kennt das Aleph nicht. Und von den Zeiten versteht ihr nichts. Das Aleph aber und die Neue Ordnung der Zeiten sind eins.”

“There is nothing supernatural about visions - or to be more accurate, contrary to traditional belief, it's not messages from some extraterrestrial domain. Visions are indeed messages from a mysterious realm alright, but like the everyday realm of human perception, the transcendental realm as well is creation of brain chemicals. I won't go into details here, as I already did that in my early days. One of my earliest works, Autobiography of God, contains a detailed analytical account of the neurobiology of transcendental experiences. However, the question is not whether there is an explanation, the question is, is it worth explaining! Because, while sometimes the lack of explanation facilitates superstition, some things are better left unexplained - such as, love.”
