Quotes by Gil Bailie (?)

“The people who burned witches at the stake never for one moment thought of their act as violence; rather they thought of it as an act of divinely mandated righteousness. The same can be said of most of the violence humans have ever committed.”
― Gil Bailie, Violence Unveiled: Humanity at the Crossroads

“Humans, in short, desire something both unknown to them and inaccessible to the strategies of acquisition that desire sets in motion. We are creatures in whom has been implanted and to whom has been entrusted a world-consuming desire, and if misdirected, it will sooner or later lay waste the world.”
― Gil Bailie, God's Gamble: The Gravitational Power of Crucified Love

“The very word, religio—to bind (ligio) back (re)—suggests exactly this. Thus these ancient cultures remained profoundly backward oriented. This ritualized return to a primordial past, the very essence of mythological forms of recollection, is what de Lubac perceptively characterized as a “deliberate (though admittedly still instinctive) refusal of history.”
― Gil Bailie, God's Gamble: The Gravitational Power of Crucified Love
