"It's tempting to think the self is powerful enough to reconceive the world every day, redesign God and religion. The Self talks a good game, but does it really know what it wants? it Keeps changing its mind. So do the signs of the times. The moment is fluid, impermanent. The dynamo of change surges impulsively on.
"Religious tradition meanwhile carries on despite all the sociological predictions of its demise. It's here to keep supplying the self with arguments to chew on, reasons to slow down the self's racing brain and to enlarge the menu of ideas."
- Undistorted God, Ray Waddle (Abingdon Press)
