Very good article, I wish you Godspeed on your endeavors to improve yourself and align with Mr. Lewis's blueprints. No easy task for, "man cannot remake himself without suffering, for he is both the marble and the sculptor." But with God and wisdom on your side, it is and eminently achievable objective.
"Athanasius shows that truth doesn’t depend on votes. Sometimes being right means standing alone."
Yes!
"It doesn’t matter what the press says. It doesn’t matter what the politicians or the mobs say. It doesn’t matter if the whole country decides that something wrong is something right. Republics are founded on one principle above all else: The requirement that we stand up for what we believe in. no matter the odds or consequences.
When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move. Your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth and tell the whole world:
'No. You move.'" —Mark Twain (Paraphrased)
Merry Christmas CU, best to all you hold dear and even those you do not.
A very thoughtful series, and a generous gift; to be revisited throughout the year. Thank you. Happy Christmas and A Merry New Year.
Thank you and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you.
