“We are all born with a powerful herd instinct and it can force otherwise rational people to act in inexplicable ways.”

“If God wanted us to act on instinct, we wouldn't have the power of reason.”

“Morality is the herd-instinct in the individual.”

“Some are filled with a compelling urge, a temptation that recycles in the mind, perhaps to become a habit, then an addiction. We are prone to some transgression and sin and also a rationalization that we have no guilt because we were born that way. We become trapped, and hence comes the pain and torment that only the Savior can heal. You have the power to stop and to be redeemed.”

“The spirit finds a way to be born. Instinct seeks for ways to survive.”

“It is necessary to remember, as we think critically about domination, that we all have the capacity to act in ways that oppress, dominate, wound (whether or not that power is institutionalized). It is necessary to remember that it is first the potential oppressor within that we must resist – the potential victim within that we must rescue – otherwise we cannot hope for an end to domination, for liberation.”
