※ 引述《JosuaJoshua (Uni-Heidelberg)》之銘言:
: . . . in us men truth and love are seldom combined.
: It is also possible to say precisely why. Truth seduces us very easily into
: a kind of joy of possession: I have comprehended this and that, learned it,
: understood it. Knowledge is power. I am therefore more than the other man who
: does not know this and that. I have greater possibilities and also greater
: temptations. Anyone who deals with truth--as we theologians certainly do--
: succumbs all too easily to the psychology of the possessor. But love is the
: opposite of the will to possess. It is self-giving. It boasteth not itself,
: but humbleth itself.
: by Helmut Thielicke in "A Little Exercise for Young Theologians"
: 我想這就是為什麼耶穌說最大的真理是愛(愛神愛人)
: 任何其他的真理,沒有了愛,其實就不再是真理了...
「...對我們人類來說,真理和愛很少能相容。
我們可以精確的去解釋其中的道理。真理很容易引誘我們進入一種「佔有的喜悅」;
而我早已領略、學會、瞭解了這件事。知識就是力量。
我,相對於其他許多不瞭解這事的人,有著更多的機會和更大的誘惑。
那些面對真理的人——像是我們這些神學家——太容易屈服於「佔有者的心理」。
但是愛卻是佔有的相對。愛是自我犧牲的。愛不是誇耀自己,而是謙卑。」
隨便亂翻...
