    • Added a quotation: “The principal difference between the husbandryman and the historian is that the former breeds sheep or cows or such and the latter breeds (assumed) facts. The husbandryman uses his skills to enrich the future, the historian uses his to enrich the past. Both are usually up to their ankles in bullshit.

    something witty edited the memorable quotes of Another Roadside Attraction Monday, June 7, 2010.

    • Added a quotation: “The indescretions itemized by Purcell were, so it seemed to Marvelous, indications of increasing Christian entropy.

That imbalance has warped the religious structure and although it has heightened its physical force it has pushed its spiritual potential toward zero. Political and/or economic power create frictional resistance to the natural flow of love. In the case of the Church, such friction has resulted in an engine that has considerable momentum but fails to generate salvation.
