quote:
The bible also explains why there is a rejection of the preservation of his words and an embracing of the world's wisdom.
Hey, what a coincidence! The
Tao Te Ching says the same thing about the teaching of the Tao:
When the highest type of men hear the Way, with diligence they're able to practice it;
When the average men hear the Way, some things they retain and others they lose;
When the lowest type of men hear the Way, they laugh out loud at it.
If they didn't laught at it, it couldn't be regarded as the Way.
Translated by Robert G. Henricks
"Intellectually, scientifically, even artistically, fundamentalism -- biblical literalism -- is a road to nowhere, because it insists on fidelity to revealed truths that are not true." -- Katha Pollitt
