Posted by Express Rider on Sun Feb 3 13:17:45 2019, in response to Re: My latest allocution, posted by bingbong on Sun Feb 3 10:50:39 2019. re: Beliving in something is easy, living it's a little harder.- I thought about this too, but when I wanted to write it in my post, I was never satisfied with the sentence as I wrote it. Agree with you completely on the last paragraph. and as to good works/karma, of course - how could I not have remembered this. I think my relating your response to Sartre and that period, is due to, historically that I admire his personal actions; joining and working with the Resistance, and his ability to articulate his basic idea, that he wrote about later in life; that we are alone and are responsible for our own actions, . It resonates with me. I find it relevant to these times, and how I try (however imperfectly at times) to live my own life. and "How you live, how you treat others is just as faith" is very true (glad you included that), and the basis for many sermons, whether they be on Friday night, Sunday morning, or some other time, that many people in various congregations, probably snooze through. Diderot - your recommendation is going on my list! I've not read anything by him, only got as far as his name, and a paragraph description of him in some Western Civ. class back in school. |
