“The word of God is definitely above culture, in terms of what or who should have authority in our lives. However, we must remember that we are within culture, and our calling in Christ is to play our part in the redemption and transformation of individuals and cultures. I believe the recent history of the religious subculture teaches all too clearly that unless we are moving forward in seeking the genuine transformation of culture, then we are standing still and it is transforming us.” ShouldBelieveStillsPlayRememberMovingCultureIndividualI BelieveTermChristReligiousChristianityTeachOur LivesCallingAuthorityStandingShould HaveTransformationSeekingGenuineMoving ForwardRedemptionWord Of GodTransformingStanding StillSubculture Author:Steve Scott
“Let us be clear: censorship is cowardice. ... It masks corruption.

“Appreciation is the oil that lubricates life and keeps your wheels turning easily and freely.

“No great, inspiring culture of the future can be built upon the moral principle of relativism. For at its bottom such a culture holds that nothing is better than anything else, and that all things are in themselves equally meaningless. Except for the fragments of faith (in progress, in compassion, in conscience, in hope) to which it still clings, illegitimately, such a culture teaches every one of its children that life is a tale told by an idiot, signifying nothing.” ChildrenStillsLife IsCultureCompassionMoralPrinciplesTeachProgressConscienceBuiltAll ThingsBottomTalesIdiotMeaninglessFragmentsRelativismMoral PrinciplesSignifying Author:Michael Novak

“As in the game of billiards, the balls are constantly producing effects from mere chance, which the most skillful player could neither execute nor foresee, but which, when they do happen, serve mainly to teach him how much he has still to learn; so it is in the most profound and complicated game of politics and diplomacy.

“The trade of chemist (fortified, in my case, by the experience of Auschwitz), teaches you to overcome, indeed to ignore, certain revulsions that are neither necessary or congenital: matter is matter, neither noble nor vile, infinitely transformable, and its proximate origin is of no importance whatsoever. Nitrogen is nitrogen, it passes miraculously from the air into plants, from these into animals, and from animals into us; when its function in our body is exhausted, we eliminate it, but it still remains nitrogen, aseptic, innocent.” StillsMatterBodyCertainAnimalTeachCasesAirOvercomingFunctionImportanceRemainsTradePlantNobleInnocentExhaustedChemistAuschwitzRevulsionNitrogen Book:The periodic table Source: The periodic table
