Excerpt from Humanly Speaking
But in the middle of the track was an indu bitable fact. By all the rules of argumentation it had no business to be there, trespassing on the right of way. But there it was! We trembled to think of the impending collision.
But the collision between the argument and the fact never happened. The humanly speak ing was the switch that turned the argument safely on a parallel track, where it went whiz zing by the fact without the least injury to either. Many things which are humanly Speak ing impossible are of the most common occur rence and the theologian knew it.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores a fundamental paradox of human nature - our tendency to set standards that we can't always keep. The author, a minister, focuses on the moral and social implications of this problem, exploring the ways in which we often feel like failures when we can't live up to our own ideals. The author argues that this is a common experience, and that we should not be too hard on ourselves when we fall short. Instead, we should focus on making progress, and on learning from our mistakes. The book explores the ways in which our moral standards have changed over time, and argues that we should be wary of judging ourselves or others too harshly. It also explores the role of religion in shaping our moral values, and argues that religion can be a source of both comfort and challenge. Ultimately, the book offers a hopeful message, arguing that we can all make progress in our moral lives, and that we should not give up on ourselves, even when we fall short.
