Religion And Philoshophy Quotes

“البراز إذاً هو مسألة لاهوتية أكثر صعوبة من مسألة الشر. فالله قد أعطى الحرية للإنسان وبذلك يمكننا أن نسلّم بأن الله ليس مسؤولاً عن جرائم البشر.”

“ينتج عن ذلك أن الوفاق التام مع الكائن يتخذ مثاله الأعلى عالماً يُنتفى منه البراز، ويتصرف كل واحد فيه وكأن البراز غير موجود. هذا المثال الجمالي يدعى «الكيتش». «كيتش» هي كلمة ألمانية ظهرت في أواسط القرن التاسع عشر العاطفي، ثم انتشرت بعد ذلك في جميع اللغات. ولكن استعمالها بكثرة أزال دلالتها الميتافيزيقية الأصلية وهي: كلمة كيتش في الأساس نفي مطلق للبراز. وبالمعنى الحرفي كما بالمعنى المجازي «الكيتش» تطرح جانباً كل ما هو غير مقبول في الوجود الإنساني.”

“عندما كان سيمون يفكر في ذلك اللقاء كان يشعر بالخجل من وَهَله. من المؤكد أنه لم يُعجب أباه. أما هو فأُعجب بأبيه. كان يتذكر كل كلمة تفوّه بها مستصوباً مواقفه أكثر فأكثر. هناك جملة على الأخص علقت بذاكرته: «إدانة هؤلاء الذين لا يعرفون ماذا يفعلون، عمل بربري». وعندما وضع عمّ صديقته كتاب التوراة بين يديه، تأثر بكلمات يسوع التي تقول: «إغفر لهم لأنهم لا يدرون ماذا يفعلون». كان يعرف أن أباه ملحد ولكن التشابه بين الجملتين كان بالنسبة له وكأنه رمز خفي يعني أن أباه يستحسن الطريق التي اختارها.”

“Science can now help us to understand ourselves in this way by giving factual information about brain structure and function, and how the mind works. Then there is an art of self knowledge, which each person has to develop for himself. This art must lead one to be sensitive to how his basically false approach to life is always tending to generate conflict and confusion. The role of art here is therefore not to provide a symbolism, but rather to teach the artistic spirit of sensitive perception of the individual and particular phenomena of one's own psyche. This spirit is needed if one is to understand the relevance of general scientific knowledge to his own special problems, as well as to give effect to the scientific spirit of seeing the fact about one's self as it is, whether on elikes it or not, and thus helping to end conflict. Such an approach is not possible, however, unless one has the spirit that meets life wholly and totally. We still need the religious spirit, but today we no longer need the religious mythology, which is now introducing an irrelevant and confusing element into the whole question. Itwould seem, then, that in some ways the modern person must manage to create a total approach to life which accomplishes what was done in earlier days by science, art and religion, but in a new way that is appropriate to the modern conditions of life. An important part of such an action is to see what the relationshipbetween science and art now actually is, and to understand the direction in which this relationship might develop.”

“Meditation is spending time with the self. It is the time to be intimated with the soul.”

“You must know there is nothing higher and stronger and more wholesome and good for life in the future than some good memory, especially a memory of childhood, of home. People talk to you a great deal about your education, but some good, sacred memory, preserved from childhood, is perhaps the best education. If a man carries many such memories with him into his life, he is safe to the end of his days, and if one has only one good memory left in one's heart, even that may sometime be the means of saving us.”

“May your life overflow with hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.”

“The gift of the Sabbath must be treasured. Blessed are you who honour this day.”

“The scripture gives us timeless hope.”

“Religious fanatics and Political fanatics, yet we want Nigeria to be developed. A nation filled with blind people. See developed nations dealing on facts and figures, discovering cures for diseases, building people with great minds through science, proposing theories, debating over them, testing them and proving them thus using such theories to invent and innovate technologies. Here in Nigeria, we are deceiving ourselves, fasting and praying. Pointing fingers at people who won't make heaven yet they don't wanna die. A place where asking questions is a crime and a sin. They act as if they are holier than the pope. Greedy and blind people.”

“In my philosophy, I think churches should not argue and be greedy with money. I think different churches like the synagogues, mosques, and Christian/Catholic churches should focus on bringing peace in the world and not compete. I know in today's world, people are defending one religion to another and try to show off. Has God, Jesus, or the disciples mentioned about competition in the Bible? I don't think so. Because if we compete, we turn to selfish needs and be greedy. So whatever religion you're in, have faith in it as much as you can and help others. Because in every religion I know, you have to give back the poor and have peace in your mind.”

“Wszystkie światy lecą to na dół, to w górę - człowiek każdy, robak każdy krzyczy - "Ja Bogiem" - i co jeden po drugim konają - gasną komety i słońca - Chrystus nas już nie zbawi - krzyż swój wziął w ręce obie i rzucił w otchłań. - Czy słyszysz, jak ten krzyż, nadzieja milionów, rozbija się o gwiazdy, łamie się, pęka, rozlatuje w kawałki, coraz niżej i niżej - aż tuman wielki powstał z jego odłamków? - Najświętsza Bogarodzica jedna się jeszcze modli i gwiazdy, Jej służebnice, nie odbiegły Jej dotąd - ale i Ona pójdzie, kędy idzie świat cały.”

“Belief in God puts our life on autopilot. We know that someone up there is watching us and is in control. Losing our faith puts off the autopilot, we have to run it manually, and check if everything is alright for ourselves. No wonder religion has a wide appeal; most of us are lazy and would like a supreme being to be in charge”

“Many in our world today want us to believe that we can except Christ simply as a Savior from sin, but not the Lord of our lives. They teach essentially that a person can perform an act of believing on Christ once, and after this, they can fall away even into total unbelief and yet still supposedly be "saved". Christ does not call men in this way. Christ does not save men in this way. The true Christian is the one continually coming, always believing in Christ. Real Christian faith is an ongoing faith, not a one-time act. If one wishes to be eternally satiated, one meal is not enough. If we wish to feast on the bread of heaven, we must do so all our lives. We will never hunger or thirst if we are always coming and always believing in Christ. He's our sufficiency. Christ the bread from heaven. We must feed on all of Christ, not just the parts we happen to like. Christ is not the Savior of anyone unless He is their Lord as well.”

“Christ is our all. He is everything to the Christian. He fills all, is in all, and He is our life (Colossians 3:4, 11). It is in Him that all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden (Colossians 2:3). He is the author and finisher of our salvation, the one who starts it, works it out, and completes it (Hebrews 12:2). This is as the Father wanted it. He places His people in the hands of the Son, having joined them to the Son in a super-natural union, so the Son, by His perfect life of obedience, and perfect act of self-sacrifice upon the cross, can bring about their full and complete salvation.”

“The Christian has been drawn unto Christ. Those who wish to boast in having something to do with their salvation, or who insist that the final decision lays with man, resist the clear meaning of Christ's words, "draw." But this is a wondrous term. It is beautiful to hear. Drawn in love. Drawn in mercy. Drawn unto the one who died in my place. It is sovereign action, undertaken by the one who holds the entire universe by His power. It is an irresistible drawing, most definitely, but is a drawing of grace. The one drawing loves the one who is being drawn. And those drawn can never be thankful enough to God who brought them out of darkness into the marvelous light of Christ.”

“Spirituality is not a religion or a trend—it is a lifestyle. It is a lifestyle of awareness that combines the understanding of faith, body, mind, and soul, allowing us to live modern-day enlightened lives in small and big ways.”

“Hope is the assurance of positive expectations.”

“One last Unseen entities possessed my mind in the chaos of their worship. Created by the heathen ancestors, deceased objects by otherworldy divinities provide comfort in my psyche. The whirlwind of its carnage gives me a hymn to lament for. The sun is my Deity, and I enjoy watching the world scorch while worshipping it. I am like a deity without a God because the universe is a pleasure in my thoughts. The only way I can experience life is through an illusion, such as being like a divine being, which molds and forsakes any belief in oneself in the absence of a God.”

“Religion should teach about hope to come for all, not terror for some”

“Does the existence of God matter? Believing is the magic that's changing your inner mind and releasing the present pain to something better. Believing is like medicine for your mind; in a magical way it releases and calms the hell where your body and mind are now, especially when you don't have any other choice.”
