“Now a confirmed atheist, I've become convinced of the enormous contribution that Christian evangelism makes in Africa: sharply distinct from the work of secular NGOs, government projects and international aid efforts. These alone will not do. Education and training alone will not do. In Africa Christianity changes people's hearts. It brings a spiritual transformation. The rebirth is real. The change is good.” PeopleHeartRealGovernmentChristianSpiritualEffortChristianityProjectsTrainingTransformationInternationalAtheistConvincedAidsEnormousContributionSecularRebirthEvangelismSpiritual TransformationChange Is Good Author:Matthew Parris
“Even as a child I was fascinated by death, not in a spiritual sense, but in an aesthetic one. A hamster or guinea pig would pass away, and, after burying the body, I'd dig it back up: over and over, until all that remained was a shoddy pelt. It earned me a certain reputation, especially when I moved on to other people's pets. "Igor," they called me. "Wicked, spooky." But I think my interest was actually fairly common, at least among adolescent boys. At that age, death is something that happens only to animals and grandparents, and studying it is like a science project.” PeopleThinkingChildrenBodyHappensAgeSpiritualCertainInterestAnimalCommonBoysStudyProjectsMovedReputationWickedPetFascinatedAestheticPigsGrandparentPassing AwaySpookyMoved OnGuineaBuryingHamstersAll That RemainsGuinea PigsI Moved On Author:David Sedaris
“Business is not a spiritual matter, and my business decisions are not based on spiritual considerations. When I founded the Essence of Life, a project aimed at teaching tolerance and respectful dialogue, the person appointed to head it was Irit Atzmon, a former colonel in the army.

“One of the greatest challenges facing civilization in the twenty-first century is for human beings to learn to speak about their deepest personal concerns-about ethics, spiritual experience, and the inevitability of human suffering-in ways that are not flagrantly irrational. We desperately need a public discourse that encourages critical thinking and intellectual honesty. Nothing stands in the way of this project more that the respect we accord religious faith.” ThinkingWayNeedsFirstsHumansSpiritualSufferingSpiritualitySpeakChallengesReligiousHuman BeingsCenturyHonestyCivilizationProjectsIntellectualEthicsConcernTwentiesCriticalIrrationalDiscourseReligious FaithAccordCritical ThinkingInevitabilitySpiritual ExperienceHuman SufferingPublic DiscourseIntellectual Honesty Book:Letter to a Christian Nation Source: Letter to a Christian Nation
“When contemplating a work of art it is possible to perceive if it has been created according to the eye or to the spirit, in other words, if it projects three-dimensional reality or spiritual n-dimensionality.” IfsHas BeensArtRealityEyeSpiritualSpiritThreeProjectsPerceiveWorks Of ArtContemplating Author:Theo van Doesburg
