Impressions:

  • Birth 
  • Childhood
  • The cruelty of life interrupting the innocence of childhood
  • Three brothers and their family
  • Idyllic 1950s Waco, Texas
  • The sacred and emotional
  • Amplified by the death of the middle brother
  • A young boy emerging in the world
  • Coming to grips with the cruelty of the world
  • Choosing how to respond to life
  • The Way of Nature, his father, or The Way Of Grace, his mother.

Sometimes I see your face,
Stars seem to lose their place
Why must I think of you?
Why should I cry for you?
Why would you want me to?
What would it mean to say,
"I loved you in my fashion?"

Lunch with Hugh Ross today. What stands out beyond his obvious intelligence is his humbleness. This man exemplifies Christian charity in his speech. What a thing to aspire to.

Blog comments are rife with redundant, cliched remarks. In an effort to sound intelligent, the commenter often resorts to these. A similar phenomenon occurs amongst news media talking heads. Remember gravitas?

Here's the first one in a list I'm compiling!

  • Pure drivel

There are so many substitutes used in our society-- substitutes for eggs, substitutes for wood, substitutes for diamonds-- that perhaps we should not be too surprised to find substitutes for morality as well.  One of the most widespread substitutes for morality, especially among intellectuals, is sanctimoniousness.

How do you tell morality from sanctimoniousness? For one thing, morality is hard and sanctimoniousness is easy.  Anyone who has succumbed to temptation, and then felt deeply ashamed long afterwards, knows how hard morality can be.

Sanctimoniousness is easy.  There are editorial writers who are sanctimonious every day of the week, without any visible sign of fatigue.  As far as they are concerned, those who disagree with them are not merely in error, but in sin.  Morality means being hard on yourself.  Sanctimoniousness means being easy on yourself-- and hard on others.
