Valerie Tarico Quotes
When The Bible Is Understood In Its Literary And Historical Context; Errors, Contradictions, And Inconsistencies Pose No Threat To Spirituality, Whether That Spirituality Is Theistic, Non-theistic, Or Even Explicitly Jesus-centered. The Graver Threat To What Christians Call Godliness May Be Fundamentalism - Religion That Flows From Literalism And Fear, Religion Based On Anachronism And Law. Fundamentalism Teachers, In Effect, That The Tattered Musings Of Our Ancestors, Those Human Words That So Poorly Represent The Content Of Human Thinking, Somehow Adequately Describe God. Fundamentalism Offers Identity, Security, And Simplicity, But At A Price: By Binding Believers To The Moral Imitations And Cultural Trappings Of The Ancients, It Precludes A Deeper Embrace Of Goodness, Love, And Truth - In Other Words, Of Divinity.
