Quote of the Day

How can one be a Christian when those such as [Rousas John] Rushdoony, [Jerry] Jenkins, and [Tim] LaHaye describe themselves as such?  How can one be an atheist when a T-shirt vendor such as [Richard] Dawkins has foisted himself on thoughtful and humane non-believers?  [Marc] Chagall shows the way for all of us, whatever we believe.  His life and art demonstrate that it is possible to buck the trend of cynicism and to believe in each other more than in the rightness of our particular ideas.

-- Frank Schaeffer, Patience With God, p. 122
