More From Barack Obama

Faith is precisely the paradox that the single individual as the single individual is higher than the universal, is justified before it, not as inferior to it but superior - yet in such a way, please note, that it is the single individual who, after being subordinate as the single individual to the universal, now by means of the universal becomes the single individual who as the single individual is superior, that the single individual as the single individual stands in an absolute relation to the absolute.
Mean Atheism Way
We said that a single injustice, a single crime, a single illegality, particularly if it is officially recorded, confirmed, a single wrong to humanity, a single wrong to justice and to right, particularly if it is universally, legally, nationally, commodiously accepted, that a single crime shatters and is sufficient to shatter the whole social pact, the whole social contract, that a single legal crime, a single dishonorable act will bring about the loss of ones honor, the dishonor of a whole people. it is a touch of gangrene that corrupts the entire body.
Loss People Justice
Faith and daily life, faith and work-these are not separate things. they are one and the same. to think of them as separate-that faith is faith, and work is work-is theoretical faith. based on the recognition that work and faith are one and the same, we should put one hundred percent of our energy into our jobs and one hundred percent into our faith, too. when we resolve to do this, we enter the path of victory in life. faith means to show irrefutable proof of victory amid the realities of society and in our own daily lives.
Jobs Mean Reality
The agnostic does not simply say, "l do not know." he goes another step, and he says, with great emphasis, that you do not know. he insists that you are trading on the ignorance of others, and on the fear of others. he is not satisfied with saying that you do not know, -- he demonstrates that you do not know, and he drives you from the field of fact -- he drives you from the realm of reason -- he drives you from the light, into the darkness of conjecture -- into the world of dreams and shadows, and he compels you to say, at last, that your faith has no foundation in fact.
Dream Ignorance Light
The world is full of people who have lost faith: politicians who have lost faith in politics, social workers who have lost faith in social work, schoolteachers who have lost faith in teaching and, for all i know, policemen who have lost faith in policing and poets who have lost faith in poetry. it's a condition of faith that it gets lost from time to time, or at least mislaid.
Faith Teaching People
I prayed for faith, and thought that some day faith would come down and strike me like lightning. but faith did not seem to come. one day i read in the tenth chapter of romans, 'now faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of god'. i had closed my bible, and prayed for faith. i now opened my bible, and began to study, and faith has been growing ever since.

Prayer is not overcoming god's reluctance. it is laying hold of his willingness.

You see, it's been our misfortune to have the wrong religion. why didn't we have the religion of the japanese, who regard sacrifice for the fatherland as the highest good? the mohammedan religion [islam] too would have been more compatible to us than christianity. why did it have to be christianity with its meekness and flabbiness?
Sacrifice Islam Christianity
Our fleshly nature tempts us to put ourselves above others or seek a position or place for ourselves instead of allowing others to have it.
