A quotation from Robert Ingersoll
When we take into consideration the fact that a belief in the Trinity is absolutely essential to salvation, how unfortunate it was for the world that this doctrine was not established until the year 1274. Think of the millions that dropped into hell while these questions were being discussed.
Robert Green Ingersoll (1833–1899) American lawyer, freethinker, orator
Lecture (1881-05-01) “The Great Infidels,” Booth’s Theater, New YorkMore about this quote: wist.info/ingersoll-robert-gre…

Sometime back, maybe 5 years ago, I came across the phrase #exvangelical . It resonated with me as I was exploring #orthodoxy and some of my deeply held convictions were fraying at the edges. Just a few days ago, on seeing the term in someone's bio, i realize I have fully walked that path now. I am thankful for my time in #protestant land as an #evangelical but I am glad to have joined the ancient church.

A quotation from Henry Commager
The concept of loyalty as conformity is a false one. It is narrow and restrictive, denies freedom of thought and of conscience, and is irremediably stained by private and selfish considerations.
Henry Steele Commager (1902–1998) American historian, writer, activist
Essay (1947-09), “Who Is Loyal to America?” sec. 3, Harper’s Magazine, Vol. 195, No. 1168More about this quote: wist.info/commager-henry-steel…

Just arrived: this important book is based on conferences at Cambridge and Oxford a couple years ago. My own piece is on how the concept of the Katechon is being utilized by Alexander Dugin to justify, legitimate, and sanctify Russia’s imperial war of aggression. #Russia #war #Ukraine #Dugin #politicaltheology #philosophy #theology #Christianity #orthodoxy #CarlSchmitt https://www.dustinjbyrd.org

A quotation from George Orwell
There are people who are convinced of the wickedness both of armies and of police forces, but who are nevertheless much more intolerant and inquisitorial in outlook than the normal person who believes that it is necessary to use violence in certain circumstances. They will not say to somebody else, “Do this, that and the other or you will go to prison”, but they will, if they can, get inside his brain and dictate his thoughts for him in the minutest particulars.
George Orwell (1903-1950) English writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
Essay (1947-03), “Lear, Tolstoy and the Fool,” Polemic Magazine, No. 7Sourcing, notes: wist.info/orwell-george/78563/
