“The State exists simply to promote and to protect the ordinary happiness of human beings in this life. A husband and wife chatting over a fire, a couple of friends having a game of darts in a pub, a man reading a book in his own room or digging in his own garden-that is what the State is there for. And unless they are helping to increase and prolong and protect such moments, all the laws, parliaments, armies, courts, police, economics, etc., are simply a waste of time.” MenHumansBookStatesMomentsHelpingLawReadingGamesHuman BeingsRoomsFireWifeCoupleProtectHusbandWasteOrdinaryEconomicsGardenIncreaseArmyPoliceCourtThis LifeEtcWasting TimeParliamentDiggingHusband And WifePubsChattingDarts Book:Mere Christianity Source: Mere Christianity

“There is a historic strain of dominion theology which says, taking its references from the Psalms, that man is made just a little lower than God, and that we are the crown of creation. That interpretation has come at the expense of the one that says when God, in the story of Noah, intervened to save human life against the flood, against the acts of nature, He did not stop with human beings. He made sure that every kind of animal was represented twice on that ark.” MenHumansKindLittlesMadeStoriesHuman BeingsAnimalCreationCreaturesTheologyHuman LifeInterpretationExpensesCrownsFloodStrainHistoricDominionPsalmsArk Author:Bill Moyers
“We have created new idols. The worship of the ancient golden calf (cf. Ex 32:1-35) has returned in a new and ruthless guise in the idolatry of money and the dictatorship of an impersonal economy lacking a truly human purpose.
