Secular Quotes

Britain, relative to the U. S., is a highly secular society. Philanthropy alone cannot fill the gap left by government cutbacks. And the sources of altruism go deep into our evolutionary past Picture Quote #1

The church must share in the secular problems of ordinary human life, not dominating, but helping and serving Picture Quote #1

In the secular view, suffering is never seen as a meaningful part of life but only as an interruption Picture Quote #1

A monk should surely love his books with humility, wishing their good and not the glory of his own curiosity; but what the temptation of adultery is for laymen and the yearning for riches is for secular ecclesiastics, the seduction of knowledge is for monks Picture Quote #1

America’s founding fathers did not intend to take religion out of education. Many of the nation’s greatest universities were founded by evangelists and religious leaders; but many of these have lost the founders concept and become secular institutions. Because of this attitude, secular education is stumbling and floundering Picture Quote #1

Secular schools can never be tolerated because such a school has no religious instruction and a general moral instruction without a religious foundation is built on air; consequently, all character training and religion must be derived from faith...? We need believing people Picture Quote #1

When two men of science disagree, they do not invoke the secular arm; they wait for further evidence to decide the issue, because, as men of science, they know that neither is infallible. But when two theologians differ, since there is no criteria to which either can appeal, there is nothing for it but mutual hatred and an open or covert appeal to force Picture Quote #1

Business men are to be pitied who do not recognize the fact that the largest side of their secular business is benevolence... No man ever manages a legitimate business in this life without doing indirectly far more for other men than he is trying to do for himself Picture Quote #1

One of the great sadnesses of modern life, because of our disenfranchisement and disillusionment with religion, is that we don’t have access to these ideas. Yoga and meditation, for me, is a way of, in this secular world, accessing very very beautiful principles that would perhaps make us happier, at a time when people feel disillusioned with the economy, concerned about the ecology, worried with politicians, and don’t trust what they’re being told on television Picture Quote #1

We are presented with an unpleasant choice between either committing to peculiar concepts about immaterial deities or letting go entirely of a host of consoling, subtle or just charming rituals for which we struggle to find equivalents in secular society Picture Quote #1

The secular world is more spiritual than it thinks, just as the ecclesiastical world is more materialist than it cares to acknowledge Picture Quote #1

It’s obvious throughout secular and church history that significant legislation follows only after dramatic action Picture Quote #1

Knowledge has come to be defined as what can be proven by secular evidence and arguments Picture Quote #1

Some people seem to gravitate from one fundamentalism to another, from some kind of secular fundamentalism into a religious fundamentalism or the other way around, which is not very helpful Picture Quote #1
