“In one period the grossest ignorance and barbarism prevailed in the world; and afterwards, in a more enlightened age, the most daring infidelity, and contempt of God; so that the world which was once over-run with ignorance, now by wisdom knew not God, but changed the glory of the incorruptible God as much as in the most barbarous ages, into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things. Nay, as they increased in science and politeness, they ran into more abundant and extravagant idolatries.” MenWorldMadeRunningAgeFourChangedIgnorancePeriodsGloryBirdRanBeastEnlightenedContemptDaringInfidelityPolitenessIdolatryBarbarismExtravagant Author:William Carey
“I myself have loved a lady and pursued her with a great deal of under-age protestation, whom some three or four gallants that have enjoyed would with all their hearts have been glad to have been rid of.

“Paul taught that religions evolved because man did not honor the true God. Because of rebellion, they "exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of the corruptible man and birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures." One characteristic of idolatry is that it always confuses the creature with the creator.” MenFormAnimalFourTaughtHonorCreaturesGloryBirdCreatorCharacteristicsRebellionIdolatryCrawlingTrue God Author:Erwin W.

“I remember on Thanksgiving all the kids wanted the drumstick. There were four of us then. Well, today you can go into the supermarket and get 12 drumsticks. Years ago you couldn't do that. So I was sucking on the neck for two years. My mother told me it was the leg, and I believed it. I went to my father and said, Why is my leg always cockeyed? He said, The bird has arthritis.” YearsWellsSaidTwoKidsTodayWantedRememberMotherFatherFourBirdYears AgoLegsNecksTwo YearsSupermarketsArthritisDrumsticks Author:Pat Cooper
