Dietrich Bonhoeffer
“He who loves his dream of a community more than the Christian community itself becomes a destroyer of the latter, even though his personal intentions may be ever so honest and earnest and sacrificial.”
Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Life Together: The Classic Exploration of Christian Community

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“I asked the late great German novelist Heinrich Böll what the basic flaw was in the German character. He said, “Obedience.” ***”
Kurt Vonnegut, Timequake

Paul Copan
“The never-angered person is morally deficient.”
Paul Copan, Is God a Moral Monster?: Making Sense of the Old Testament God

Alan Jacobs
“There is no good trying to be more spiritual than God. God never meant man to be a purely spiritual creature. That is why He uses material things like bread and wine to put the new life into us. We may think this rather crude and unspiritual. God does not: He invented eating. He likes matter. He invented it.”
Alan Jacobs, The Narnian: The Life and Imagination of C. S. Lewis

James K.A. Smith
“Habitus, then, is a kind of compatibilism. As a social being acting in the world, I’m not an unconstrained “free” creature “without inertia”; neither am I the passive victim of external causes and determining forces. Neither mechanical determinism nor libertarian freedom can really make sense of our being-in-the-world because our freedom is both “conditioned and conditional.” Both our perception and our action are conditioned, but as conditioned, it is possible for both to be spontaneous and improvisational. I learn how to constitute my world from others, but I learn how to constitute my world. The “I” that perceives is always already a “we.” My”
James K.A. Smith, Imagining the Kingdom (Cultural Liturgies): How Worship Works
