“Buddha was speaking in a village square one day, when one of the inhabitants started to abuse him. Buddha paused and said to the man, "If you offer me a piece of paper and I refuse to accept it, what happens to the paper?" "Why, it stays with me, of course," the villager replied. Buddha smiled gently, "And that is exactly what I am doing with your abuse," he said. "I am not accepting it, therefore it stays with you."” IfsMenSaidWisdomHappensCoursesAcceptingPiecesHe ManOne DayOffersPaperAbuseRefuseVillageSquaresStay With Me Author:Gautama Buddha

“Most Christians who've been around for a while have their Story in bits and pieces, but have never seen how powerful it really is when assembled as a whole. I want them to see how well it fits together and how it offers tremendous explanatory power regarding the world as we actually find it. I want them to see how it resolves the problem of evil, and why God's solution - the God/man Jesus - is the only solution.” MenWorldWantWellsWholeStoriesProblemChristianTogetherEvilJesusBitsPowerfulPiecesFitOffersSolutionsResolveBits And PiecesProblem Of Evil Author:Greg Koukl
“Gossip is certainly one of the things that language is useful for, because it's always handy to know who needs a favor, who can offer a favor, who's available, who's under the protection of a jealous spouse.

“We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread.

“A good piece of fiction, in my view, does not offer solutions. Good stories deal with our moral struggles, our uncertainties, our dreams, our blunders, our contradictions, our endless quest for understanding.

“We do not accept a religion because it offers us certain rewards. The only thing that a religion can offer us is to be just what it, in itself, is: a greater meaning in ourselves, in our lives, and in our grasp of the nature of things...a religion exists for us only if, like a piece of poetry, it carries us away. It is not in any sense a 'hypothesis.” IfsCertainAcceptingGreaterPiecesOur LivesOffersRewardsCarrieHypothesis Author:Michael Polanyi
