Quote

My forces are not enfeebled, I find no decay in my strength my provisions are not cut off, I find no abhorring in mine appetite my counsels are not corrupted nor infatuated, I find no false apprehensions to work upon mine understanding and yet they see that invisibly, and I feel that insensibly, the disease prevails.

Insofar as theology is an attempt to define and clarify intellectual positions, it is apt to lead to discussion, to differences of opinion, even to controversy, and hence to be divisive. And this has had a strong tendency to dampen serious discussion of theological issues in most groups, and hence to strengthen the general anti-intellectual bias.

There is a major disaster when a person allows some success to become a stopping place rather than a way station on to a larger goal. It often happens that an early success is a greater moral hazard than an early failure.
