More From Mike McCurry

To be a true progressive it is not sufficient to stand up and say that one belives in what has been promulgated as progressive principles. one must be progressive in heart and active in promoting the progressive principles of today, tomorrow and always. there is no resting point, for humanity is ever ascending to a higher and better goal.
Heart Goal Humanity
There are parallels between the 1960s and now, because during the 1960s, people were being slaughtered, their lives were being taken, there was violence, greed, drugs were rising - just all of this. and my uncle was saying, you've got to come back to faith, hope and love. now, you get the translation and say faith, hope and charity - faith, hope and love.
Uncles Taken People
The world is full of people who have lost faith: politicians who have lost faith in politics, social workers who have lost faith in social work, schoolteachers who have lost faith in teaching and, for all i know, policemen who have lost faith in policing and poets who have lost faith in poetry. it's a condition of faith that it gets lost from time to time, or at least mislaid.
Faith Teaching People
Faith and daily life, faith and work-these are not separate things. they are one and the same. to think of them as separate-that faith is faith, and work is work-is theoretical faith. based on the recognition that work and faith are one and the same, we should put one hundred percent of our energy into our jobs and one hundred percent into our faith, too. when we resolve to do this, we enter the path of victory in life. faith means to show irrefutable proof of victory amid the realities of society and in our own daily lives.
Jobs Mean Reality

In every system of theology, therefore, there is a chapter de libero arbitrio. this is a question which every theologian finds in his path, and which he must dispose of; and on the manner in which it is determined depends his theology, and of course his religion, so far as his theology is to him a truth and reality
Reality Path Determined

Bad humor is an evasion of reality; good humor is an acceptance of it.
Humor Acceptance Reality
The consciousness of being deemed dead, is next to the presumable unpleasantness of being so in reality. one feels like his own ghost unlawfully tenanting a defunct carcass.
