With the reign of Theodosius I (c. 346-395), a fierce and even fanatical Christian true believer who ascended to the throne in 379, the war of God against the gods entered its final and decisive phase. He was the first emperor to formally elevate Christianity to the legal status of the state religion of Rome. As a faithful member of the “orthodox” and “catholic” church, he condemned Arianism and other Christian beliefs and practices that the orthodox church regarded as apostasies and heresies.
For the true believer in monotheism, the freedom to embrace any faith raised the risk that some benighted men and women would embrace the wrong faith. For the Christian rigorists, that risk was itself intolerable: “So, in the century opened by the Peace of the Church,” explains Ramsay MacMullen, “more Christians died for their faith at the hands of fellow Christians than had died before in all the persecutions.” With the Peace of the Church begins a new, remarkable and terrible phenomenon—some Christians hastened to turn themselves from the persecuted to the persecutors.
İnsan beyninin deneyimleyebileceği hazzın sınırı nedir? Şimdi anlıyorum ki sınıra ulaşmak için çizginin ötesine geçmen gerekiyormuş. Tüm yasaların ve ahlakın ötesine, insanların çizdiği çizginin ötesine.
Çok ironik değil mi? Tüm insanlar mutlu olmak istiyor. Ama pes ediyorlar ve mutluluk uğruna birçok şeye katlanıp sonunda yine mutsuz oluyorlar.

Whether you are a Christian believer or not, whether you have a personal attachment to the New Testament or not, whether you base your life on the teachings of Jesus or not, the New Testament has profoundly affected your life and will continue to play an enormous role in the world in which you, and all of us, live.

İş yaparken en önemli şey insanları tanımaktır. Paran, canın, hepsi buna bağlıdır. Ama her insanın ciğerini nasıl okuyacaksın? Ben şaman değilim. Stratejimi biliyor musunuz? Kim olursa olsun, hiç bir şerefsize güvenmem.
