Jurgen Habermas Quotes
For The Normative Self-understanding Of Modernity, Christianity Has Functioned As More Than Just A Precursor Or Catalyst. Universalistic Egalitarianism, From Which Sprang The Ideals Of Freedom And A Collective Life In Solidarity, The Autonomous Conduct Of Life And Emancipation, The Individual Morality Of Conscience, Human Rights And Democracy, Is The Direct Legacy Of The Judaic Ethic Of Justice And The Christian Ethic Of Love. This Legacy, Substantially Unchanged, Has Been The Object Of A Continual Critical Reappropriation And Reinterpretation. Up To This Very Day There Is No Alternative To It. And In Light Of The Current Challenges Of A Post-national Constellation, We Must Draw Sustenance Now, As In The Past, From This Substance. Everything Else Is Idle Postmodern Talk.
