Not Preaching Quotes

“Religion asks followers to believe in things nobody can see, however, animal activists ask people to see things they can prove. When Christian animal and environmental activists finally demand that their church be better stewards over the world, we will see change. Until then, one percent of sermons will teach parishioners about the importance of being stewards over our animals in a year. Mega churches and corporate religious empires will continue to own stock in companies that pollute our earth and exploit our animals. Ignorance and hypocrisy will continue to corrupt the pureness of the Gospel. From here, we will not be truly “saved” because we choose not to save ourselves.”
― Shannon L. Alder

“Thi det er klart, at U-roeligheder og indbyrdes Krige reyse sig lige saa lidt af differente Meeninger i Religion, som af different Smag udi Mad og Drikke; men de reyse sig alleene af Forfølgelser, og deraf, at den eene Borger vil tvinge den anden, til at finde Smag udi det, hvori han haver naturlig Afsmag, det er, at nægte sit eget Lys og sine egne Sandser.”
― Ludvig Holberg, Epistler
