If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.- Desmond Tutu
Post-modernism is Pontius Pilate personified, mockingly asking Jesus, 'What is truth?'.--Patrick Sookhdeo, The death of Western Christianity p 2
So what is the difference between someone who wilfully indulges in sexual pleasures while ignoring the Bible on more purity and someone who wilfully fully indulgence in the selfish pursuit of more and more material possessions while ignoring the Bible on caring for the poor?
