“Reading is merely a surrogate for thinking for yourself; it means letting someone else direct your thoughts. Many books, moreover, serve merely to show how many ways there are of being wrong, and how far astray you yourself would go if you followed their guidance. You should read only when your own thoughts dry up, which will of course happen frequently enough even to the best heads; but to banish your own thoughts so as to take up a book is a sin against the holy ghost; it is like deserting untrammeled nature to look at a herbarium or engravings of landscapes.” IfsThinkingWayShouldLooksMeanBookEnoughShowsHappensCoursesReadingSinHolyDirectGhostLandscapeGuidanceDryHoly GhostBeing WrongSurrogatesDry Up Book:101 Facts of life Source: 101 Facts of life

“Christians have always tended to transform the Christian Revelation into a Christian religion. Christianity is said to be a religion like any other or, conversely, some Christians try to show that it is a better religion than the others. People attempt to take possession of God. Theology claims to explain everything, including the being of God. People tend to transform Christianity into a religion because the Christian faith obviously places people in an extremely uncomfortable position that of freedom guided only by love and all in the context of God's radical demand that we be holy.” PeopleTryingSaidShowsChristianReligionChristianityPositionHolyDemandClaimsIncludingPossessionTheologyRadicalUncomfortableRevelationsChristian Faith Author:Jacques Ellul
