Quotes by Mark Townsend (?)

“Faith clearly means ‘to move forward without knowing.’ But for the last 300 years at least it’s meant ‘to know every-thing with certainty.’ How has a word come to mean the exact opposite of what is originally meant?”
― Mark Townsend, Diary of a Heretic: The Pagan Adventures of a Christian Priest

“How sad. I’ve just had a walk down The Grange and passed an angry old man from my old church. He just turned round, stood, and glared, shaking his head at me. I don’t understand why people are sometimes so hostile and never seem to be able to let go. This poor chap and many like him have attended church every week of their lives, and yet it seems to have had no impact whatsoever on their characters. Alas, it is a mystery indeed.”
― Mark Townsend, Diary of a Heretic: The Pagan Adventures of a Christian Priest

“The little-me is egocentric, concerned with self-preservation and inward looking. It has a habit of being judgemental, both to self and to others. It is critical, insecure, needy, defensive and proud. The little-me is only ever secure in achievement and is therefore highly fragile and easily offended. The little-me wants to control and manage, and cannot easily let go.”
― Mark Townsend, The Gospel of Falling Down: The Beauty Of Failure In An Age Of Success
