“If criticism has made such discoveries as to necessitate the abandonment of the doctrine of plenary inspiration, it is not enough to say that we are compelled to abandon only a "particular theory of inspiration..." We must go on to say that that "particular theory of inspiration" is the theory of the apostles and of the Lord, and that in abandoning it we are abandoning them.” IfsMadeEnoughInspirationChristianityLordParticularTheoryGoes OnDiscoveryCriticismDoctrineAbandonCompelledAbandonmentApostles Author:B.

“Our civilization is not Christian. It does not come from the skies. It is not a result of inspiration. It is the child of invention, of discovery, of applied knowledge - that is to say, of science. When man becomes great and grand enough to admit that all have equal rights; when thought is untrammeled; when worship shall consist in doing useful things; when religion means the discharge of obligations to our fellow-men, then, and not until then, will the world be civilized.” MenWorldMeanChildrenDoeEnoughInspirationChristianResultsRightsSkyAtheismCivilizationEqualWorshipDiscoveryFellowsPositive AtheismInventionObligationCivilizedFellow ManEqual RightsDischargeUseful Things Book:The Works of Robert G.

“The cliché of that sort of wasted, renegade, drugged-out musician of the '70s is kind of dead and gone now. And I suppose that a lot of people still keep relying on that, or some kind of image to perpetuate something that they think they're supposed to sound like. But that kind of takes you away from real inspiration and, you know, real artistic discovery of the individual.” PeopleThinkingKnowsKindStillsRealInspirationIndividualSoundGoneMusicianDiscoveryArtisticRenegades Author:Chrissie Hynde
