Beatrice Webb Somewhere in my diary 1890?

I wrote I have staked all on the essential goodness of hum an nature [Now thirty five years later I realize] how permanent are the evil impul ses and instincts in man how little you can count on changing some of these for inst ance the appeal of wealth and power by any change in the [social] machinery No amoun t of knowledge or science will be of any avail unless we can curb the bad impuls e. c.S. Lewis It would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We ar e half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when inf inite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pi es in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday a t the sea. We are far too easily pleased. SIMON THE ZELOT AGAINST EVERYTHING GOVERNMENT, MATTHEW THE TAX COLLECTOR WORKING IN THE GOVERNMENT.. JESUS BROUGHT THE UNITY Ease of truth Mans truth goes up.. Gods truth comes down.. he has to reveal that to us. JC truth is accessable to children, eastern and western phili has no access to t he philosophy. If you not smart you have no access to enlightenment,J they can m eet and trust. JD Greea, My son wants to put the folk in the plug, I would love to explain to him how alt ernating current work, but at 4 years of ago I can't. He just just to believe me .

Plato The "Allegory of the Cave" by Plato represents an extended metaphor that is to c ontrast the way in which we perceive and believe in what is reality. The thesis behind his allegory is the basic tenets that all we perceive are imperfect "refl ections" of the ultimate Forms, which subsequently represent truth and reality. In his story, Plato establishes a cave in which prisoners are chained down and f orced to look upon the front wall of the cave. When summarizing the "Allegory of the Cave" it's important to remember the two elements to the story; the fiction al metaphor of the prisoners, and the philosophical tenets in which said story i s supposed to represent, thus presenting us with the allegory itself. The multi-faceted meanings that can be perceived from the the beginning with the presence of our prisoners whom are kness of the aforementioned cave. The prisoners are bound e to turn their heads to see what goes on behind them. To "Cave" can be seen in chained within the dar to the floor and unabl the back of the prison

ers, under the protection of the parapet, lie the puppeteers whom are casting th e shadows on the wall in which the prisoners are perceiving reality. The passage is actually told not from the perspective of the prisoners, but rather a conver sation occurring between Socrates and Glaucon (Plato's brother). While the alleg ory itself isn't the story, but rather the conversational dialogues between Glau con and Socrates (Plato often spoke his ideas through Socrates in his works), th e two are not mutually exclusive and thus will not be treated so. Suffering in the Old testament. Time of Grace. we rejected God, and now we think we deserve life. No we don't, Building in Jeurselm falls on 18 people and kills them. People skinner, Jesus r esponds all will die. Why are you all still alive? The Sunday shines on Everybod y, sin suffering falls on everybody. J.r.r tolken when we go into eternity, every sad thing becomes untrue
