“A society like the Church, which claims to be Divine is perhaps more dangerous on account of the ersatz good which it contains then on account of the evil which sullies it. Something of the social labelled divine: an intoxicating mixture which carries with it every sort of license. Devil disguised.” EvilSocialChurchDangerousDivineDevilAccountsClaimsCarrieLicenseMixtures Book:Gravity and Grace Source: Gravity and Grace
“It may be no less dangerous to claim, on certain occasions, too little than too much. There is something captivating in spirit and intrepidity, to which we often yield as to a resistless power; nor can we often yield as to a resistless power; nor can he reasonably expect the confidence of others who too apparently distrusts himself.” MayLittlesSpiritCertainToo MuchDangerousClaimsOccasionsYieldDistrustCaptivating Book:The Rambler: A Periodical Paper, Published in 1750, 1751, 1752 Source: The Rambler: A Periodical Paper, Published in 1750, 1751, 1752
“It's possible that the name Bettini came up at some point during a conversation with the German Cycling Federation's anti-doping commission, but I certainly didn't claim that he gave me any drugs. They made that up. Bettini warned me: If you said that, then things could get dangerous for you.” IfsMadeSaidNamesDangerousDrugConversationClaimsCyclingFederationDoping Author:Patrik Sinkewitz
“If I had to catalog all the moronic plot turns in The Day After Tomorrow, we'd be here until the next ice age. It's just so very bad. You can have a pretty good time snickering at it-unless, like me, you think there's something to this global warming thing, and you shudder at the irony of a movie meant to warn people about a dangerous environmental trend that completely discredits it. Is it possible that the film is a plot to make environmental activists look as wacko as anti-environmentalists always claim they are?” PeopleIfsThinkingLooksAgeFilmTurnsNextDangerousTomorrowClaimsEnvironmentalLike MeIceIronyGlobal WarmingGood TimesPlotActivistTrendsEnvironmentalistDiscreditIce Age Author:David Edelstein
“Indeed, some secularists are so worried about Christianity, they think Christians are about as dangerous as Muslim terrorists. They get really worried when we don't invest our lives in this-worldly concerns. They look on us as unpredictable free agents. When we reject their relativism and make absolutist spiritual claims, they look at us as nervously as they would a terrorist with a suicide bomb strapped to his back. Of course, Christians are not into coercion in any form. But it is very hard to persuade secularists of that.” ThinkingLooksHardChristianSpiritualFormCoursesChristianityOur LivesDangerousConcernClaimsSuicideTerroristAgentsWorriedBombsRejectsUnpredictableWorldlyGet RealCoercionRelativismFree AgentsMuslim Terrorists Author:Mark Dever
