Christianity is a religion of continuity and discontinuity as well. It's about what stays the same and what changes in the twinkling of an eye.

- Emily Maitlis
#Religion
For if the honour paid to Him is shared by others, He altogether ceases to be worshipped, since His religion requires us to believe that He is the one and only God.

Where do we invest our trust now? In politicians? Most people would say not. In banks, in religion, in a sense of nationhood? In each other? Even that has been complicated. It feels like there's a total collapse of trust, but without trust, it's impossible to have any sense of who one is.
- Mike Bartlett

#Religion
