“And so when we talk about intangible values remember that they cannot be separated from the others. The conservation of waters, forests, soils, and wildlife are all involved with the conservation of the human spirit. The goal we all strive toward is happiness, contentment, the dignity of the individual, and the good life. This goal will elude us forever if we forget the importance of the intangibles.” IfsHumansRememberSpiritValuesIndividualGoalWaterForgetForeverInvolvedDignityImportanceEnvironmentalStriveForestsSoilContentmentGood LifeConservationHuman SpiritWildlifeIntangibleEludeElude Us Author:Sigurd F.

“It often astonishes me that I did not see the importance of meditation upon Scripture earlier in my Christian life. As the outward man is not fit for work for any length of time unless he eats, so it is with the inner man. What is the food for the inner man? Not prayer, but the Word of God -not the simple reading of the Word of God, so that it only passes through our minds, just as water runs through a pipe. No, we must consider what we read, ponder over it, and apply it to our hearts.” MenMindHeartRunningChristianReadingWaterPrayerSimpleMeditationFitImportanceScriptureChristian LifeLengthOver ItWord Of GodPipePondering Author:George Muller
“The discussion of the game of marbles seems to have led us into rather deep waters. But in the eyes of children the history of the game of marbles has quite as much importance as the history of religion or of forms of government. It Is a history, moreover, that is magnificently spontaneous; and it was therefore perhaps not entirely useless to seek to throw light on the child's judgment of moral value by a preliminary study of the social behaviour of children amongst themselves.” ChildrenLightSeemsGovernmentEyeFormValuesGamesSocialWaterMoralStudyJudgmentImportanceUselessDiscussionBehaviourSpontaneousMarbleForms Of GovernmentMoral ValuesMoral JudgmentDeep WaterEyes Of A Child Author:Jean Piaget
“Water is two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen. What if someone says, “Well, that’s not how I choose to think about water.”? All we can do is appeal to scientific values. And if he doesn’t share those values, the conversation is over. If someone doesn’t value evidence, what evidence are you going to provide to prove they should value it? If someone doesn’t value logic, what logical argument could you provide to show the importance of logic?” IfsThinkingShouldWellsTwoShowsValuesWaterCan DoShareConversationProveEvidenceArgumentLogicImportanceAppealsLogicalWhat IfOxygenHydrogenLogical Arguments Author:Sam Harris
