The eminent ecclesiastic sneered at original sin.
"The sin is your livelihood. Without it you would starve to death,
for your ministry would have no further meaning. If man has not fallen since
his origins, why has Christ come? To redeem whom, and what?"
To my objection, his sole response was a condescending smile.
A religion is finished when only its adversaries strive to preserve its
integrity.
