“Nothing in Christianity is original.”
“The original language of Christianity is translation.”
“The idea that we are to be absorbed into the Deity is Gnostic in its origins and is quite antithetical to Christianity."~R. Alan Woods [2006]”
“Originality is nothing by judicious imitation. The most original writers borrowed one from another.”
“How is it, that for many of us, being a good Christian is nothing more than being a good person? The entire focus of our faith has been the elimination of sin, which is important but inadequate; rather than the unleashing of a unique, original, extraordinary, wonderfully untamed, faith.”
“Christians talk as though goodness was their idea but good behavior doesn't have any religious origin. Our prisons are filled with the devout.”
