- C.S. Lewis99◆ I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.
- Mahatma Gandhi99◆ To be a Christian means to forgive the inexcusable because God has forgiven the inexcusable in you.
- C.S. Lewis99◆ I didn't go to religion to make me happy. I always knew a bottle of Port would do that. If you want a religion to make you feel really comfortable, I certainly don't recommend Christianity.
- C.S. Lewis99◆ It would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.
- C.S. Lewis99◆ Because God has made us for Himself, our hearts are restless until they rest in Him.
- Augustine of Hippo99◆ You can safely assume you've created God in your own image when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do.
- Anne Lamott99◆ The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully.
- Richard Dawkins99◆ [To have Faith in Christ] means, of course, trying to do all that He says. There would be no sense in saying you trusted a person if you would not take his advice. Thus if you have really handed yourself over to Him, it must follow that you are trying to obey Him. But trying in a new way, a less worried way. Not doing these things in order to be saved, but because He has begun to save you already. Not hoping to get to Heaven as a reward for your actions, but inevitably wanting to act in a certain way because a first faint gleam of Heaven is already inside you.
- C.S. Lewis99◆ Nobody's perfect. Well, there was this one guy, but we killed him....
- Christopher Moore99◆ A silly idea is current that good people do not know what temptation means. This is an obvious lie. Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is... A man who gives in to temptation after five minutes simply does not know what it would have been like an hour later. That is why bad people, in one sense, know very little about badness. They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in.
- C.S. Lewis99◆ The Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult; and left untried.
- G.K. Chesterton99◆ In truth,there was only one christian and he died on the cross.
- Friedrich Nietzsche99◆ The Bible has noble poetry in it... and some good morals and a wealth of obscenity, and upwards of a thousand lies.
- Mark Twain99◆ God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing.
- C S Lewis98
