Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Loving others, therefore, is not a question so much of “doing God’s will” but, rather, of “living God’s life.”
Paul F. Knitter, Without Buddha I Could Not be a Christian

“As some theologians have commented, if we’re convinced that the starting point for our individual lives, or for the human project in general, is marked “original sin” rather than “original blessing,” it’s going to be all the more difficult to move on.”
Paul F. Knitter, Without Buddha I Could not be a Christian

“If Mystery is the goal and content of all religious experience, then Silence is a necessary means of letting Mystery speak.”
Paul F. Knitter, Without Buddha I Could not be a Christian
