“England has to fulfill a double mission in India: one destructive, the other regenerating - the annihilation of old Asiatic society, and the laying the material foundations of Western society in Asia... When a great social revolution shall have mastered the results of the bourgeois epoch... and subjected them to the common control of the most advanced peoples, then only will human progress cease to resemble that hideous, pagan idol, who would not drink the nectar but from the skulls of the slain.” HumansSocialResultsCommonProgressMaterialsRevolutionDrinkIndiaEnglandFoundationWesternMissionsCeaseDestructiveIdolsAsiaPaganSkullsBourgeoisHideousAnnihilationEpochHuman ProgressNectarSocial RevolutionWestern Society Author:Karl Marx

“Theres something unique about the United States, a sense of individual rights and freedoms, and a sense of social and civic responsibility that we contributed to so much of the world. We lost that mission in the 1980s and 1990s, when we entered a gilded age, and the culture of individualism became a culture of avarice.” WorldStatesAgeCultureIndividualLostSocialUnitedResponsibilityUnited StatesRightsUniqueMissionsIndividualismAvariceCivicsIndividual RightsRights And FreedomsGildedGilded AgeCivic Responsibility Author:George Hickenlooper
“So too, since Christ has in principle defeated the fallen "gods" (principalities and powers) who have for ages inspired injustice, cruelty and apathy toward the weak, the poor the oppressed and the needy (Ps. 82), the church can hardly carry out its role in manifesting, on earth and in heaven, Christ's victory over these gods without taking up as a central part of its missions just these causes. We can, in truth, no more bifurcate social concerns and individual salvation than we can bifurcate the cosmic and anthropocentric dimensions of Christ's work on the cross.” AgeEarthIndividualHeavenSocialCausesChristChurchPoorPrinciplesRolesVictoryConcernCrossesWeakSalvationInspiredInjusticeMissionsCrueltyFallenDimensionsManifestCosmicApathyDefeatedOppressedNeedy Book:God at War: The Bible & Spiritual Conflict Source: God at War: The Bible & Spiritual Conflict
