Great/inspirational quotes

"I don’t like the modern rendition of the flood. It is painted on the walls of children’s rooms with bright colors and happy animals. The reality is unspeakably gruesome- screaming, crying, people clamoring for higher ground, millions of pale bloated lifeless bodies floating, the stench of rotting flesh, etc. It is more like a horror movie than a children’s cartoon.
When I speak of this sort of thing, many professing Christians become indignant and declare, “That’s not my God!” True. Their god doesn’t exist."

[] <----- that's the little box so many Christians try to put God into.

Actual size.
 
"What's the point of being free if one uses one's freedom to silence oneself?"

As Mark Levin noted in American Marxism, quoting Herbert Croly of The New Republic, when one hears anyone in 'authority' saying we're supposed to "follow the Science," what they mean by Science is "the centralized administrative state run by 'expert' masterminds."

Isn't that how it's supposed to work in the Lake of Purification/Fire?

I did a Duck Duck Go search and found out the name of that ancient dude you quoted is Suzy Kassem.

And ancient? Not according to celebscouple.com: "Suzy Kassem is a 45-year-old American Screenwriter from Ohio, United States. He was born on Monday, December 1, 1975." 45: smack dab middle aged. We ain't old until we's at least 60!
 
“Oh, how prone we are to despise the believers we consider inferior to us, and how we delight to associate with those whose fellowship we find specially congenial. Pride of heart and a selfish enjoyment in spiritual things causes us to overlook the fact that a church in any given place should consist of all the children of God in that place, so we narrow down Christian fellowship and make selection among the children of God. This is sectarianism, and it is a grief of heart to the Lord.”

Watchman Nee, The Normal Christian Church Life, 1962

Could you provide that quote?
I did the same search and her name came up, but not the quote.
 
“You can’t judge a book by its cover, but you can judge a man by his vibrations.”

I'm not always serious, @steve. I did do the search, and the link to him was what came up first, but I didn't even hunt down the quote within the link. I really already knew who we could attribute the quote to: it originated with some old dude named Paige Turner.
 
"Paige Turner" is probably not a real name.

Page turner....like a book.

He probably wishes that he was more of a head turner.
 
I'm on the cusp of getting myself in trouble here.

:eek:

It depends on which link one follows whether Suzy Kassem is identified as male or female, but for the sake of this question, I wonder how patient Ms. Kassem can be before judging a man's resulting vibrations?
 
Ahem.

Then again, Suzy K might have gender identification issues.
