"The power of Christianity lies not in in its promise of other worldly compensations for suffering in this life...but the awareness of a faith that delivers potent antidotes to life's miseries here and now"
~ Rodney Stark
I just found this quote posted on The Progressive Christian Alliance on facebook.
I had no idea who Rodney Stark was so I looked him up. He is a social sciences professor at Baylor University, an author and the co-director for the Institute for Studies of Religion in Waco, Texas.
