J Budziszewski Quotes

Your worldview has to have the same shape that reality does Picture Quote #1

Depraved conscience turns out to be as different from genuine ignorance as it is from honest recognition Picture Quote #1

To be evil at all, Satan needs good things he can abuse, things like intelligence, power and will. Those good things come from God Picture Quote #1

Or perhaps the syndrome we are witnessing is preemptive capitulation: If we reduce our conscience to rubble before the bad men get here, they will have nothing to destroy Picture Quote #1

As any sin passes through its stages from temptation, to toleration, to approval, its name is first euphemized, then avoided, then forgotten. A colleague tells me that some of his fellow legal scholars call child molestation intergenerational intimacy: that’s euphemism. A good-hearted editor tried to talk me out of using the term sodomy: that’s avoidance. My students don’t know the word fornication at all: that’s forgetfulness Picture Quote #1

It is hard enough to face the moral law even with the revelation that the divine justice and divine mercy are conjoined. It offends our pride to be forgiven, terrifies it to surrender control Picture Quote #1
