“The person who believes in God and the person who does not believe in God do not merely disagree about God. They disagree about the character of the universe.”
C Stephen Evans

“When the children on a holiday have already finished playing all the games before noon and now impatiently say, “is there no one who can think of a new game?,” does this show then that these children are more developed and precocious than the children in the same or a previous generation who could make the familiar games last for the whole day? Or does it not rather show that these first children lack what I would call the endearing earnestness that belongs to play?”
C. Stephen Evans, Fear and Trembling

“I-thou relationship. Martin Buber’s term for a special relationship that is possible between persons when those persons relate to each other in a fully personal way and do not think of the other as an object to be manipulated or as a means to an end. Buber believed that such relationships make possible a different kind of knowledge of the other and that it is possible to have such a relation with God, who is the absolute Thou.”
C. Stephen Evans, Pocket Dictionary of Apologetics & Philosophy of Religion: 300 Terms Thinkers Clearly Concisely Defined
