“If chance is less accidental than we think and the world is less self-...” — Dejan Stojanovic Quote

“If chance is less accidental than we think and the world is less self-governed, the outcome is also the same for believers and non-believers. All arguments and counterarguments become worthless because of existence's vastness and paradoxical nature or the universe itself. Under such a scenario, all views or counterarguments would fit equally on either side.”

“Many vital questions would have remained unanswered and unresolved without philosophy.”

“The whole past, the present, and the future are in the world as potential. Without space, there is no growth and time. Growth and development are possible only in the multitude, which implies distances and is not accidental. Even if the beginning was accidental, and it was not, growth and development are not. A compressed idea, the primordial Universal Mind, contains the Way and every dimension. Time is the measure of distance; time beats from its heart and records the motion of its bloodstream; time turns the pages of the Way and epitomizes the unmistakable memory of the Being-God. Time is the Being’s device with which it deceives the emptiness within itself. Time records and glorifies the glory of the Being-God.”

“The only real purpose and the only real meaning lies in freedom, and there is no real freedom without free will. Free will can only exist if there is an element of chance. But this chance is not a chance as we ordinarily view it, but a chance for possibility and existence, a chance of existence itself. In this manner, the fundamental forces of the world are manifested in the world, regardless of the level of awareness of this knowledge. Knowledge of the world is intrinsic to the world, irrespective of its level or degree of awareness. On the other hand, Chance is the real potential of the world.”

“You can love people deeply and still realize that losing yourself is not the price of love.”

“Now listen. Faith is like oxygen. It keeps you afloat at all times. Sometimes you need it. Sometimes you don’t. but when you do need it you better be practiced at having faith, otherwise it won’t work. That’s why the missionaries built all the churches. Before we got those churches we weren’t practicing enough. That’s what prayers are for—practice, children. Practice.”

“Atheists are my brothers and sisters of a different faith, and every word they speak speaks of faith. Like me, they go as far as the legs of reason will carry them -- and then they leap.”

“Your body will decay after death, but your mind will still exist!”

“Nature" is another name for the miracles that are so commonplace in our lives that we take for granted and have grown used to seeing them.”

“Deep, contended joy comes from a place of complete security and confidence [in God] - even in the midst of trial.”
