“All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you: the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was. If you can get so that you can give that to people, then you are a writer.”

Divide and Rule... even God was not spared.





I was reading up a bit on the history of the church. There were schisms in the church,i realized as early as the fifth century AD. I feel that this was bound to happen when each group of people interpreted Christ's doctrine in their own way. I wonder if the church was split up only due to some obdurate ministers who weren't willing to accept any other idea but their own. However accepting all ideas would again lead to no consistency in the church, it would be like a irregular patchwork with different ideas glued unevenly to hold them together. Had Christ anticipated that we would tear up his bride so. Whichever sect of Christianity we to, i feel that we are each responsible for dividing the Church.
