“There is an appearance of humility in the protestation that the truth is much greater than any one of us can grasp, but if this is used to invalidate all claims to discern the truth it is in fact an arrogant claim to a kind of knowledge which is superior to [all others]...We have to ask: 'What is the [absolute] vantage ground from which you claim to be able to relativize all the absolute claims these different scriptures make?”

“Faith is indeed intellectual; it involves an apprehension of certain things as facts; and vain is the modern effort to divorce faith from knowledge. But although faith is intellectual, it is not only intellectual. You cannot have faith without having knowledge; but you will not have faith if you have only knowledge.”
― J. Gresham Machen

“The First Blast. Entitled A Harbour for Faithful and True Subjects, it was published anonymously in Strasbourg in April 1559. It was certainly not intended as a defence of women. In Aylmer’s opinion, although ‘some women be wiser, better learned, discreeter, constanter than a number of men’, most were ‘fond, foolish, wanton, flibbertigibbets, tattlers, trifling, wavering witless, without counsel, feeble, careless, rash, proud, dainty, nice [meaning pernickety], tale-bearers, eaves-droppers, rumour-raisers, evil tongued, worse-minded and in every way doltified with the dregs of the devil’s dunghill’.”

“How could you possibly know that no religion can see the whole truth unless you yourself have the superior, comprehensive knowledge of spiritual reality you just claimed non of the religions have?”
