[Cornel] West: The conception of life in which you are a pilgrim or sojourner, moving through time tied to something bigger than you, even beyond time, means you’re going to be less likely to succumb to the forms of idolatry. If you have a conception of yourself tied to something that’s broader than just time and space, it means your sense of calling is deeper than just your sense of career. Me and Robbie encounter this all the time when young people come and say, "We love your brand." We say, "No, we don’t have a brand." We have a cause. We have a calling. And it’s beyond just history and time and space. And historically, it’s been those figures who had a sense of what John Coltrane called the bigger picture that connects us to the smaller picture that allows us to persevere with levels of integrity and love and honesty that make no sense in the eyes of the world.

[Robert] George: You know, maybe, Cornel, that’s where the concept of the transcendent comes in, it’s so important in our practical living, because it’s a burden if you don’t have that in your life, if you don’t have an openness to something great. When we ask the question: What am I going to do with my life? I think the temptation will be to try to calculate or reason out what would make me happy or what would make me happiest. But we know from all of human experience, the worst way to find happiness is to pursue it. To be obsessed with it. I think when you’re open to the transcendent, you shift from what’s going to make me happy in that psychological sense of how can I accomplish my mission.

Man with breast cancer shares 1 symptom he ignored for months: 'It can happen to you'

Black men have a much higher risk of breast cancer than white men.

Robert George is a wonderful, kind man, and I hope you will read and heed his story.

the most precious reaction possible

[hope-and-fire]

It was for my sins that the Son of God suffered and died. It was for my selfishness, my pride, my greed, my lusts, my covetousness, my self-indulgence, my injustices, my failures of courage and of love. I hear St. Francis of Assisi talking to me when he says: 'It is you who have crucified him and crucify him still when you delight in your vices and sins.' Yes, it is true. I am the one. I am responsible. And I am sorry.

Just helped annoy Robert George vocal homophobe and transphobe from Princeton to the point he left mid speech from our campus and will never come back.

We were told we were enacting “the tyranny of the minority” and they said WE were the fascists.
