SEPTEMBER 25th
Pessimism says that life is so short that it gives nobody a chance; religion says that life is so short that it gives everybody his final chance.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.

"Pessimism says that life is so short that it gives nobody a chance; religion says that life is so short that it gives everybody his final chance."
ReplyDeleteFaith (as opposed to religion) says that life is such a gift from God that the only chance to make sense of it is by embracing Christ.
