Man and Evil

In preparing for my Sunday morning message on "The Christians View of Man" I found the following quote form Albert Einstein, not a believer by the way.

"The world is too dangerous to live in-

not because of people who do evil,

but because of people who sit and let it happen."
Albert Einstein (1879-1984)

Very interesting statement. Most don't leave comments but what do you think? Is he correct?
I have found others by various authors I'll be sharing in the next few days. Not "cheery" thoughts but they do make you think.

Know God, Know Yourself, Know the Difference

Often times we disagree with people whom we haven't read. Such is the case for many when it comes to John Calvin. But the following quote must be read and considered and I find nothing in it to challenge. He was big on sovereignty.

"Man is never sufficiently touched and affected

by the awareness of his lowly state

until he has compared himself with God's majesty."

-John Calvin
