“What should we do? We have no wish to interrupt the destroyer's work of saving lives... But war is war and the people being picked up out of the water are soldiers bound for the front; soldiers who are to shoot at our German brothers... The question whether we are to perish in despair or defiance, or survive all trails with a live conscience, depends wholly and solely on whether we believe in the forgiveness of sins. This 25th January was the turning point in my life, because it opened my eyes to the utter impossibility of a moral universe.” PeopleShouldBelieveWarEyeUniverseWishWaterSinMoralFrontsBrotherDependsDespairConscienceBoundsSoldierSavingTrailsImpossibilityDefianceJanuaryTurning PointsDestroyersSave A LifeForgiveness Of Sins Author:Martin Niemoller

If he cannot change his mind about these, he is then fixed and enslaved amidst barriers such as those of the physical universe, and barriers of his own creation.

He creates these barriers himself, or by agreeing with things which hold these barriers to be actual.” IfsMenMindUniverseIndividualEnergySpaceRolesCreationDependsFixedConsiderationBarriersLife And Time Author:L.

“The fact that men have a same origin and live in the same universe means that they are representatives of a same unity. Deep down, they are also related (or connected) among them; that they consider (or not) themselves as strangers, this just depends on the feeling (or sensation) that dictate their relationships. In their country, two fellow coutrymen whose paths berely cross (or see each only only briefly) with inferrence, would effusively rush themselves up (or throw themselves) into each other arms if they would happen to meet in a desert, among Cannibles.” IfsMenMeanTwoCountryFactsFeelingsHappensUniversePathArmsDependsCrossesFellowsUnityStrangerConnectedDesertRelatedSensationsRepresentativesDeep Down Author:African Spir
