If Christianity is just about control and secularism is about freedom, why are there 613 laws in the Bible and literally millions of laws in this secular theocracy we call the United States?

"When modern people assume that we have made so much progress over ancient or nonindustrialized cultures, they forget this point. It is far, far better to understand a central truth with the whole of oneself than it is to know many things only with the mind.

When one knows only with the mind, and the feelings are not integrated into the knowing, then the knowledge one has becomes harmful. Technology without ethics is the result of having knowledge without developing the instrument of ethical perception, the feelings.

As it was said long ago, "The mind is for seeing what is true; the feelings are for understanding what is good."
