Your missing the entire narrative of the Bible. The answer is exactly what you said, Catholicism brought us to the western world and the western world is more devoid of god than ever before in history. The world will get better when the story is finished, and the Bible tells us how it will end

I’ve been wanting to read the Discarded Image. How is it so far?

@@ollielearnstoread its fscinating, i didn't realise that the pagan nature of the medieval period in england had so many characters from greek and roman religions. its all mixed in with stories of fairies. there is a chapter called 'the longaevy' which i have just finished which talks about all the pixie type creatures. its quite magical.

@@bath_neon_classical That sounds so interesting, and like it would make Lewis’s other works come alive. I’m officially adding it to my reading list to remind myself 😄

@@ollielearnstoread most cs lewis books just became free on audible including this one

@@bath_neon_classical Ooh, that's awesome! Thanks for letting me know!

This is so beautifully written.

Tablet of Fire exerpts of Baháʼu'lláh Were it not for calamity, how would the sun of Thy patience shine, O Light of the worlds? Lament not because of the wicked. Thou wert created to bear and endure, O Patience of the worlds. How sweet was Thy dawning on the horizon of the Covenant among the stirrers of sedition, and Thy yearning after God, O Love of the worlds. By Thee the banner of independence was planted on the highest peaks, and the sea of bounty surged, O Rapture of the worlds. By Thine aloneness the Sun of Oneness shone, and by Thy banishment the land of Unity was adorned. Be patient, O Thou Exile of the worlds. We have made abasement the garment of glory, and affliction the adornment of Thy temple, O Pride of the worlds. Thou seest the hearts are filled with hate, and to overlook is Thine, O Thou Concealer of the sins of the worlds. When the swords flash, go forward! When the shafts fly, press onward! O Thou Sacrifice of the worlds.
