“I have but one thought in my heart for the young folk of the Church and that is that they be happy. I know of no other place than home where more happiness can be found in this life. It is possible to make home a bit of heaven; indeed, I picture heaven to be a continuation of the ideal home.” KnowsHeartHomeYoungFoundHeavenBitsChurchMy HeartIdealsFolksThis LifeContinuation Author:David O.

“It’s the strangest thing about this church - it is obsessed with sex, absolutely obsessed. Now they will say we, with our permissive society and rude jokes, are obsessed. No, we have a healthy attitude. We like it, it’s fun, it’s jolly; because it’s a primary impulse it can be dangerous and dark and difficult. It’s a bit like food in that respect, only even more exciting. The only people who are obsessed with food are anorexics and the morbidly obese, and that in erotic terms is the Catholic church in a nutshell.” PeopleFunSexBitsDifficultTermChurchDarkAttitudeDangerousHealthyJokesExcitingCatholicPrimariesImpulseObsessedRudeEroticCatholic ChurchJollyObeseAnorexics Author:Stephen Fry
“The Angels shows are really intense. We play for a couple hours at a time. They're very theatrical and full of audience interaction and emotion. I've seen a lot of people crying and stuff.

“The world could not long ignore a holy church. The church is not despised because it is holy: it is despised because it is not holy enough. There is not enough difference between the people inside the church and those outside to be impressive. A church in which saints were as common as now they are rare would convict the world, if only by contrast. Sanctity cannot be ignored. Even a little bit is potent. So far from the gates of hell prevailing against it, it hammers on their triple steel.” PeopleIfsWorldLittlesLongEnoughReligionBitsDifferencesChurchCommonHellHolyLittle BitSaintGatesContrastSteelIgnoredHammersImpressiveDespisedSanctityPrevailingConvictsGates Of Hell Author:Bill Vaughan
“The idea of separating church and state by the Founding Fathers of America was freedom from the domination of one form of religion, because many of them left England, because they were persecuted by the church, because they want to express their Christian faith in a different way.

“I'm a preacher first and a writer second, although my role is changing a bit at the church. I'm going to bring on a co-teacher, but I'll still be a pastor and a writer.” FirstsStillsBitsChurchRolesTeacherPreacherPastor Author:Max Lucado
