A coupla quotes

Hey... now that my stinkin' internet is working again I have two quotes from "The Irresistible Revolution" that have been on my mind today (I called my ISP, and they actually told me they were replacing some hardware on the tower I use - man, that's like... a straight answer! But I've been isolated almost all day). Okay...

Shane says on p.169, “I am convinced that most of the terribly disturbing things that are happening in our world in the name of Christ and Christianity are primarily the result not of malicious people but of bad theology.”

Yeah. And it's often the one's who know the biggest words who seem to be the most screwed up (and believe me, I 'know' some big words - just can't use 'em in sentences).

Gandhi is quoted on p. 170, “There is enough for everyone’s need, but there is not enough for everyone’s greed.”

If that doesn't make you stop and think the next time you want a carmel vanilla latte! Hmm.

Okay, I have some stuff to do. Peace. Revolution.

"often it's the one's who know the biggest words who seem to be the most screwed up" Ha ha. Dan, thanks for the laugh. Can I quote you and place that saying on my desk somewhere?

Thanks, Danno, like I really wanted to hear YOUR thoughts on this! "If that doesn't make you stop and think the next time you want a carmel vanilla latte! " You KNOW my affections for a certain caramel macchiato...and I just read Starbucks was raising their prices......WHAAAAAAAAATTTTTT?!

Think it's time to invest in an espresso machine :/.
