How wonderful it is that we believe in modern revelation. i cannot get over the feeling that if revelation were needed anciently, when life was simple, that revelation is also needed today, when life is complex. there never was a time in the history of the earth when men needed revelation more than they need it now.

More From Gordon B. Hinckley

All propaganda or popularization involves a putting of the complex into the simple, but such a move is instantly deconstructive. for if the complex can be put into the simple, then it cannot be as complex as it seemed in the first place; and if the simple can be an adequate medium of such complexity, then it cannot after all be as simple as all that.

The greatest feeling you can get in a gym or the most satisfying feeling you can get in the gym is the pump. it feels fantastic. it's as satisfying to me as cumming is, you know, as in having sex with a woman and cumming. so can you believe how much i am in heaven? i am like getting the feeling of cumming in the gym; i'm getting the feeling of cumming at home; i'm getting the feeling of cumming backstage; when i pump up, when i pose out in front of 5000 people i get the same feeling, so i am cumming day and night. it's terrific, right? so you know, i am in heaven.

Earth walks on earth, glittering in gold; earth goes to earth, sooner than it wold; earth builds on earth, palaces and towers; earth says to earth, soon, all shall be ours.

The acts of the mind, wherein it exerts its power over simple ideas, are chiefly these three: 1. combining several simple ideas into one compound one, and thus all complex ideas are made. 2. the second is bringing two ideas, whether simple or complex, together, and setting them by one another so as to take a view of them at once, without uniting them into one, by which it gets all its ideas of relations. 3. the third is separating them from all other ideas that accompany them in their real existence: this is called abstraction, and thus all its general ideas are made.

What is needed is a move beyond tradition, nothing less than a reform movement to bring the core concepts of islam into the modern age, a muslim reformation to combat not only the jihadist ideologues but also the dusty, stifling seminaries of the traditionalists, throwing open the windows to let in much-needed fresh air.... it is high time, for starters, that muslims were able to study the revelation of their religion as an event inside history, not supernaturally above it.... broad-mindedness is related to tolerance; open-mindedness is the sibling of peace.

Will you teach your children what we have taught our children? that the earth is our mother? what befalls the earth befalls all the sons of the earth. this we know: the earth does not belong to man, man belongs to the earth. all things are connected like the blood that unites us all. man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. whatever he does to the web, he does to himself. one thing we know: our god is also your god. the earth is precious to him and to harm the earth is to heap contempt on its creator.
