“We have the Bible in our hands; but how little we know of its teaching! And how little are we governed by it! We go on, from week to week, year to year, with things which have no foundation whatever in its pages- yea, with things utterly opposed to its teaching; and, all the while, we boast of having the Scriptures, just like the Jews of old, who made their boast of having the oracles of God, while those very oracles condemned themselves and their ways, and left them without a single plea.” KnowsWayYearsLittlesMadeHandsChristianLeftWeekTeachingGoes OnPagesFoundationJewScriptureBoastOracles Author:Charles Henry Mackintosh
“It is your organized religions that have made it clear through their most sacred scriptures that cruelty and killing is an acceptable response to human frailty and human differences. This goes against every human instinct, but organized religion has reorganized human thoughts. Some humans have even been turned against their own instinct for survival. And so people go around maiming and killing each other, because they've been told quite directly that this is what God does to them--and what God wants them to do to each other.” PeopleWantHumansDoeMadeReligionDifferencesClearSurvivalSacredInstinctResponseKillingScriptureCrueltyMade ItOrganizedAcceptableFrailtyOrganized ReligionHuman ThoughtKilling Each OtherHuman FrailtiesSacred Scripture Author:Neale Donald Walsch
