In a general sense, I admit to valuing the worldviews of men under the age of 40 and women over the age of 30.

The skeptic says that the believer has lost his own mind under God. On the contrary, it is the people who follow God who are most like his children, who willingly and consciously walk in his will; but those who oppose him oppose him vainly and at their own expense, and, figuratively, seem to be more like his tools. They don't diminish his glory, but instead he still manages to use them in ways of unconsciously carrying out his will.

Seemingly minor yet persistent things penetrate the mind over time making it difficult to ever realize the impact; hence, though quite unfortunate, the most dangerous forms of corruption are those that are subtle and below the radar.

When enemies, the intellect and the heart only see one another as the hater and the fool.

In their minds, it seems as though people don't often have the same answers, but in their hearts, they do very frequently have the same questions.
