[Belthus]

Tao Teh Ching (Mackintosh translation):

The saint does more than stand aside
From passion and from strife;
The circle of his heart is wide,
Including all with life.

Those who are good he greets with good,
And greets the bad the same;
For thus is goodness understood
By those who know its name.

The faithful, and the faithless too,
He meets with faith serene;
For that is how they always do,
Who know what faith may mean.

[ratcharmer]

Hamish used this quote elsewhere on the board and I thought it was a good one, so I'm posting it here:

The greatest single cause of atheism in the world today are Christians who acknowledge Jesus with their lips and walk out the door and deny Him by their lifestyle. That is what an unbelieving world simply finds unbelievable. – Brennan Manning
