[QUOTE="Quid est Veritas?, post: 73481597, member: 385144"] This is particularly abhorrent. Distrust compassion? Be arrogant and selfish? This is that Total Depravity that sees man as essentially disgusting, life as just selfish, suspects ulterior motive for any good action. This is a paean to all that is more dark in man. It is the jaded impulse of dragging everything through mud, thus excusing our failure to live up to high standards, by casting doubt upon it in the first place. He should really have suspected his own motives and excuses, instead of just assuming the worst to be true. As the maiden Reason said in Lewis' Pilgrim's Regress: How do you know the original from a copy? How do you see that deep inside that cannot be seen? Must you keep a bridge or burn it, that you yourself must also cross, to keep it from your enemies? I thank God for religion. For knowing that "it was Good". [/QUOTE]
