The great thing about the Bible as a founding document is that you can justify everything, including genocide, if you select carefully.

Never a truer word was spoken. And as a sign I am serious about that, I won’t post a quotation, though I have several appropriate to that statement! 😉 I have my limits and standards also.

It doesn’t occur to the professors to sugar-coat anything, because, if you train for the ministry someone is going to hit you with a question about something that was written, and you had better be able to deal with it.

Mark Twain

"There are two novels that can change a bookish 14-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."

John Rogers

"The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they've found it."
