“We are driven to confess that we actually care more for religion than we do for religious theories and ideas: and in merely making that distinction between religion and its doctrine-elements, have we not already relegated the latter to an external and subordinate position? Have we not asserted that "religion itself" has some other essence or constitution than mere idea or thought?” IdeasCareReligiousPositionTheoryElementsEssenceConstitutionMereDrivenDoctrineDistinctionLatterSubordinates Author:William Ernest Hocking

In many ways a good theory is more accurate than data. It allows you to see into the future more clearly.” WayHappensAbleActionGamesCausesDecisionTechnologyVirtueClearTeachingEffectsTheoryDrivenStatementsManagersDataDecision MakingAccurateCause And EffectExaltedDisruptive Author:Clayton Christensen
“The other theory of the case - and it`s not just one that people opposed to him politically believe, but also people who share the Republican Party`s beliefs or conservative, but don`t like Donald Trump, is that he`s fundamentally a narcissist who has become addicted to the attention, is sort of compulsively driven by attention, and this has given him an outlet for that attention, and crucially doesn`t actually care about the party that he is nominally representing.” PeopleBelieveCareBeliefGivenPartyAttentionCasesShareTheoryTrumpRepublicanConservativeDrivenJust OneRepublican PartyOutletsRepresentingNarcissist Author:Chris Hayes
