reading biblical men
All of creation, in the biblical view, was to ultimately prepare the way for the creation of man. But one does not need the Bible alone to hold this view. A purely scientific reading of the universe is in keeping with this view. Everything - every natural and physical law - is exquisitely tuned to produce life, and ultimately man, on earth. Dennis Prager

reading men daily-tasks
We must be ready to allow ourselves to be interrupted by God, who will thwart our plans and frustrate our ways time and again, even daily, by sending people across our path with their demands and requests.

When we do that, we pass by the visible sign of the Cross raised in our lives to show us that God’s way, and not our own, is what counts. Dietrich Bonhoeffer

reading holocaust bombs
You don't have to signal a social conscience by looking like a frump.
