"I didn't go to religion to make me happy. I always knew a bottle of Port would do that. If you want a religion to make you feel really comfortable, I certainly don't recommend Christianity." -- C.S. Lewis

An unlikely Theologian, this blogger; a Theosopher (?) of Philology (?) would, perhaps, be more accurate (and, most definitely, absurd). Al dente: Emily Dickinson has written "the Truth must dazzle gradually or every man be blind." The Truth, and He incarnate (!), is the subject of this blog. Such unapproachable Light is never grasped or apprehended, but is received in humility, adoration, and love. See, touch, taste, yes, receive, believe. SDG

Thanks for posting this quote! I actually used it in tonight's sermon.
