I receive (through my blog-reader) a few quotes of the day from www.quotationspage.com. Here's what came through today:
I don't think he gets the point. I wonder if his point of view has changed - that was said 12 years ago. I hope so. And lest I be too quick to judge, maybe there is some truth to the statement as it pertains to organized religion. But it goes back to yesterday's post - is life all about maximizing efficiency and productivity? Is that what religion is all about?
To me, religion is all about relationships - with God, and then with our fellow man. And I'll admit that working on relationships doesn't seem very efficient - but I know that life without relationships is meaningless.
- Just in terms of allocation of time resources, religion is not very
efficient. There's a lot more I could be doing on a Sunday morning.
