“We can understand that the Fathers of the Church in the East wanted Apocalypse left out of the New Testament. But like Judas among the disciples, it was inevitable that it should be included. The Apocalypse is the feet of clay to the grand Christian image. And down crashes the image, on the weakness of these very feet. There is Jesus--but there is also John the Divine. There is Christian love--and there is Christian envy. The former would "save" the world--the latter will never be satisfied till it has destroyed the world. They are two sides of the same medal.” WorldShouldTwoWantedChristianFatherJesusLeftSidesChurchFeetDivineWeaknessEnvyEastSatisfiedDestroyedFormerInevitableLatterCrashDiscipleTestamentApocalypseClayMedalNew TestamentTwo SidesSave The WorldLeft OutChristian LoveJudas Book:Apocalypse Source: Apocalypse

“While we destroyed the Centre Party, we have not only brought thousands of priests back into the Church, but to millions of respectable people we have restored their faith in their religion and in their priests.
