“I do not see class as a 'structure', nor even as a 'category', but as something which in fact happens (and can be shown to have happened) in human relationships... the notion of class entails the notion of historical relationship. ...And class happens when some men, as a result of common experiences (inherited or shared), feel and articulate the identity of their interests as between themselves, and as against other men whose interests are different from (and usually opposed to) theirs” MenFeelsHumansDifferentFactsHappensInterestResultsCommonClassHappenedIdentityStructureHistoricalNotionCategoriesHuman RelationsHuman RelationshipsCommon Experience Book:THE MAKING OF THE ENGLISH WORKING CLASS Source: THE MAKING OF THE ENGLISH WORKING CLASS

“There is no ground whatever for the claim, so often made by religious apologists, that these ideals are specifically Christian and originated with Jesus. What were specifically Christian were some of the less enlightened teachings, which have done untold harm. Christians claim that organised Christianity has been a great force for good, but this view can be maintained on one assumption only: that everything good in the Christian era is a result of Christianity and everything bad happened in spite of it.” Has BeensMadeDoneChristianJesusForceReligiousResultsViewsChristianityHappenedAtheismTeachingIdealsClaimsPositive AtheismHarmErasAssumptionSpiteEnlightenedOrganised Author:Margaret E.

“This is a living planet. Look around. Mars, Venus, Jupiter. Look beyond our solar system. Where else is there a place that works, that is just right for the likes of us?
