“There is no Christian Gospel if history simply unwinds into a meaningless puddle, if the cosmos simply escapes into a cataclysmic black hole, or if the universe finally dies of exhausted energy. Without belief in a biblical eschatology, there is no Christian hope. Without a sense of perfect moral judgment in the end, the human heart is homeless.” IfsHumansHeartEndsChristianDiesUniverseBeliefEnergyBlackPerfectMoralJudgmentHolesCosmosMeaninglessBiblicalHomelessExhaustedHuman HeartBlack HolePuddlesUnwindChristian HopeMoral JudgmentEschatology Author:Albert Mohler
“Ah! the curse of slavery, as the common phrase goes, has fallen not merely on the black but perhaps at this moment still more upon the white, because it has warped his sense of truth and has degraded his moral nature. The position and the treatment of the blacks, however, really improve from year to year; while the whites do not seem to advance in enlightenment.” YearsStillsMomentsSeemsBlackWhiteCommonMoralPositionEnlightenmentSlaveryCurseFallenPhrasesTreatment Book:America of the Fifties: Letters of Fredrika Bremer Source: America of the Fifties: Letters of Fredrika Bremer
“A lot of my books deal with very controversial issues that most people often don't want to talk about, issues that, in my country, are more likely to get put under the carpet than get discussed. And when you talk about moral conundrums, about shades of gray, what you're doing is asking the people who want the world to be black and white to realize instead that maybe it's all right if it isn't. I know you'll learn something picking up my books, but my goal as a writer is not to teach you but to make you ask more questions.” PeopleIfsKnowsWorldWantBookCountryAsksGoalBlackRealizingWhiteDealsMoralTeachIssuesAskingGrayShadeBlack And WhiteCarpetControversialConundrumsShades Of GrayControversial Issues Author:Steven Tyler
“So much has to do with going beyond treating black people as cosmetic and symbolic items, as opposed to genuine personalities and human beings.

“As blacks, we need not be afraid that encouraging moral development, a conscience and guilt will prevent social action. Black children without the ability to feel a normal amount of guilt will victimize their parents, relatives and community first. They are unlikely to be involved in social action to improve the black community. Their self-centered personalities will cause them to look out for themselves without concern for others, black or white.” NeedsFeelsFirstsLooksChildrenSelfActionSocialCausesParentBlackCommunityAbilityWhiteMoralIdentityPersonalityDevelopmentAmountInvolvedNormalConscienceConcernGuiltUnlikelySelf CenteredBlack Or WhiteBlack CommunityConcern For OthersCultural IdentitySocial ActionMoral Development Author:James P.
