“Was it possible to carry on along through all the years, decades, thro...” — Claire Keegan Quote

“Was it possible to carry on along through all the years, decades, through an entire life, without once being brave enough to go against what was there and yet call yourself a Christian, and face yourself in the mirror?”

“Won't the few days off do us no harm.”

“Do you know what the women have a gift for? ... Eventualities. A good woman can look far down the line and smell what's coming before a man even gets a sniff of it.”

“Organized religion is the planet’s largest circus, where apes commodify divinity to sell tickets.”

“We have not reached the consensus that to eat is a basic human right. This is an ethical crisis. This is a crisis of faith.”

“If you're waiting until you feel talented enough to make it, you'll never make it.”

“I'm Resting in the Lord”

“Keep your faith within your heart even if your tongue is forced to say otherwise.”

“If God is perfect, from a religious point of view, why would creation be needed? Why create a world which is inherently less perfect than the creator itself? Why not create Paradise immediately and avoid original sin and eternal torment in Hell? Paradise is a more peaceful and ideal place. Why challenge and tempt a human being so much? Why provoke a potential rebellion by the “Devil?” Is it the boredom of God? Is it creating solely for creating? Or is it the creation in the pursuit of purpose and meaning? What higher purpose and meaning is there if not perfection itself? Following our already elaborated ideas, we should not view this purpose from the point of perfection. Still, the point of existence and life, for even a perfect God, is dead and nonexistent at absolute perfection. Absolute perfection obliterates existence.”
