“What is natural selection? Do organisms develop due to an environment,...” — Dejan Stojanovic Quote

“What is natural selection? Do organisms develop due to an environment, or does the environment only trigger the potential to evolve in almost endless ways? What determines the survival of the fittest? How are the fittest organisms or animals formed? How can the first fittest animal be formed, and based on what? How can anybody, or anything, become stronger or better than anybody else or anything else, from the same material, under the same conditions? (Is fitness already there?)”

“Canonization, limitation, and reduction of God to a “few” sentences are inconceivable attempts to kill and expel God from people under the excuse that God is doing that. There is no weakness in science and language as instruments. There is no excuse. There is only human power and weakness. Understanding depends on the balance between human strengths and weaknesses.”

“In the way we understand space, there is no real void, but in the way I described the void in the previous sections of this book, the real void is always present. What we see and experience as space is an illusion. It is impossible to transform a void into energy or matter and curve it. The real void is uncurvable. What is curved is the “immaterial” Universe in the form we experience as space, energy, and matter based on the realities predicated by the Ultimate Primary Quality of Reality and based on secondary and tertiary qualities we have already described.”

“A believer rejects the idea of disbelief merely because it is impossible to prove God’s existence or to know it in any other way except through faith. Although this may sound paradoxical, this approach is more rational than agnosticism because agnosticism excludes belief only because there is no evidence, even though providing that evidence is “impossible.” On the other hand, nobody can say, prove, or exclude the possibility of such proof.”

“We take it for granted that Jesus was not interested in political life: his mission was purely religious. Indeed we have witnessed . . . the 'iconization' of the life of Jesus: 'This is a Jesus of hieratic, stereotyped gestures, all representing theological themes. In this way, the life of Jesus is no longer a human life, submerged in history, but a theological life -- an icon.”

“Pick a drop of blood from your finger, pick a drop from another, smudge it all on the palm of your hand - now tell me, which is which - which is heretic, which is believer - which is the Christian blood, which is the Muslim - which is the faithful blood, which is forbidden!”

“God’s revelation does not need the light of human genius, the polish and strength of human culture, the brilliancy of human thought, the force of human brains to adorn or enforce it; but it does demand the simplicity, the docility, humility, and faith of a child’s heart.”

“[E]verything is always in relationship. In fact, you could almost say that everything is made of relationship, in a sense.”

“It's not just about making money; it's about giving or having something truly valuable, something good.”
