Main Statement

“If the truth is that ugly – which it is – then we do have to be careful about the way we tell truth. But to somehow say that telling the truth should be avoided because people may respond badly to the truth seems bizarre to me....” ----Chuck Skoro, Deacon, St. Paul’s Catholic Church

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Heresy is the youth of truth. Orthodox is descript old age.

Heresy is thought. Orthodoxy is habit.

Heresy is initiative. orthodoxy is inertia 

heresy is self satisfied and intolerant of orthodoxy 

heresy is equally self satisfied and intolerant of orthodoxy 

the orthodox should think better of heretics and the heretics should think better of the orthodox 

for every orthodoxy was once a heresy and every heresy is fated to be an orthodoxy 

all countries were founded by traitors.  

all our churches were founded by heretics 

the patriotism of today glories in the treasons of yesterday 

in our churches we bend the knee in cushioned prayer to saints who were once dragged before the tribunals of the orthodox and condemned and hung for their belief of unbelief 

half of us are heretics. 

the other half worship heretics.  

not even the orthodox worship the orthodox 

every orthodox faith is founded on some old time heresy 

the men who conform to the old never win immortal palms

 “Live and love the questions. Listen to the questions about God that are being asked by the twenty first century generation. You do not have to know answers to these questions. Try to love the questions themselves as if they were written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything that is unresolved in your heart. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer. This is my pursuit as well”.
