THE WORD OF GOD THE WORD OF MAN

The whole subject [of God] is beyond the scope of man's intellect."-Charles Darwin

"Christianity started out in Palestine as a fellowship; it moved to Greece and became a philosophy; it moved to Italy and became an institution; it moved to Europe and became a culture; it came to America and became an enterprise."  -Sam Pascoe
 
"There is no subject, and can be none, concerning which any human being is under any obligation to believe without evidence. The man who, without prejudice, reads and understands the Old and New Testaments will cease to be an orthodox Christian. The intelligent man who investigates the religion of any country without fear and without prejudice will not and cannot be a believer. He who cannot harmonize the cruelties of the Bible with the goodness of Jehovah, cannot harmonize the cruelties of Nature with the goodness and wisdom of a supposed Deity. He will find it impossible to account for pestilence and famine, for earthquake and storm, for slavery, for the triumph of the strong over the weak, for the countless victories of injustice. He will find it impossible to account for martyrs, for the burning of the good, the noble, the loving, by the ignorant, the malicious, and the infamous. "-Robert G. Ingersoll

Martin Luther King Jr. & Malcom X
