Thoughts on Thoughts.

There is enough light to enlighten the elect and enough obscurity to humiliate them.  There is enough obscurity to blind the reprobate and enough light to condemn them and deprive them of excuse...Blaise Pascal, Pensees (236/578)

When we are accustomed to use the wrong  reasons to prove natural phenomena, we are no longer ready to accept the right ones when they are discovered...ibid. (736/96)

Truth is so obscured nowadays and lies so well established that unless we love the truth we shall never recognize it. ibid. (739/864)

We are from God; he who knows God listens to us; he who is not from God does not listen to us.  By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error. 1 John 4:6
