“One of the effects of modern liberal Protestantism has been gradually to turn religion into poetry and therapy, to make truth vaguer and vaguer and more and more relative, to banish intellectual distinctions, to depend on feeling instead of thought, and gradually to come to believe that God has no power, that he cannot communicate with us, cannot reveal himself to us, indeed has not done so, and that religion is our own sweet invention.” BelieveHas BeensDoneFeelingsReligionTurnsWomenModernEffectsSweetDependsIntellectualCommunicateInventionTherapyDistinctionRelativeProtestantism Author:Flannery O'Connor

“It is my experience that marriage does not make one happier. It destroys the illusion that has been the essence of one's previous existence, that there existed something like a soul-mate. The feeling of not being understood is heightened in marriage by the fact that one's entire life beforehand had the aim of finding a being who would understand one. But isn't it better to exist without such an illusion and look this great lonely truth straight in the eye?” LooksDoeHas BeensSoulFactsFeelingsEyeExistenceFindingsIllusionUnderstoodLonelyEssenceAimMatesSoul Mate Author:Paula Modersohn-Becker
