“A few years ago the Deists denied the inspiration of the Bible on account of its cruelty. At the same time they worshiped what they were pleased to call the God of Nature. Now we are convinced that Nature is as cruel as the Bible; so that, if the God of Nature did not write the Bible, this God at least has caused earthquakes and pestilence and famine, and this God has allowed millions of his children to destroy one another. So that now we have arrived at the question - not as to whether the Bible is inspired and not as to whether Jehovah is the real God, but whether there is a God or not.” IfsWritingYearsChildrenRealInspirationMillionsAtheismYears AgoAccountsInspiredPositive AtheismConvincedCrueltyDeniedEarthquakesFamineJehovahPestilenceDeist Book:The Works of Robert G.

“But inspiration? - That's when you come home from abroad and are asked: Well, have you found inspiration? - and fortunately you haven't.

“The inspiration for this movie [Something New] was this Newsweek article that came out a couple of years ago that talks about 42.4 percent of black women in America aren't married. Black women are shooting up the corporate ladder way faster than our black male counterparts. And (black men) are either dating outside their race, in jail or dying. And so if you want to have a family, you want to be married, you have to look at other options.” IfsMenWayWantYearsLooksInspirationAmericaBlackRaceDyingCoupleMarriedPercentYears AgoDatingMalesFasterShootingCorporateSomething NewJailArticlesBlack WomenLaddersBeing MarriedCounterpartsBlack MalesShooting Up Author:Sanaa Lathan
