Don't tell your papist friends Christ is not present in the eucharist (it is cringe and false), but rather tell them He is as much (if not even more) present everywhere when 2 or 3 are gathered in His name, and in the heart of all creatures.

Don't tell your papist friends marriage, extreme unction etc... are not sacraments, rather tell them a Christian's whole life is a Sacrament.

The corollary of this sentence is : Christ did not come to start a new religion, He came to turn the whole universe into a Religion. Christ is both the abolition of religion and the abolition of its absence, two different ways to state the same thing.

When the veil of the Temple was ripped apart as Christ gave up His last breath, the whole universe was turned into the Holy of Holies.

The Quaker doctrine of the all-availability of God is not only a great joy, it is also a great responsability. Each sin you commit is a profanation against the Holy of Holies.

Christ is not a platonic form to be disserted about. He is a man as human as you and me, and He is to be followed, as a model and before all else as a friend.

If I cared only about the ends and not about the means, all my politics would be about destroying houses and sterilizing people.
