Englisches Zitat von Nancy Pearcey als Bild

In Gnosticism, the physical world did not ultimately matter - which meant physical suffering did not matter either. Seeking 'enlightenment' meant cultivating an attitude of detachment, even indifference.

Nancy Pearcey

Deutsche Übersetzung

Im Gnostizismus war die physische Welt letztlich nicht von Bedeutung - was bedeutete, dass körperliches Leiden ebenfalls keine Rolle spielte. Nach Erleuchtung zu suchen, bedeutete, eine Haltung der Loslösung, ja sogar Gleichgültigkeit, zu pflegen.

When I made the switch from strictly entertainment news to more of these natural world documentaries, it's really been all about wanting to make saving the world cool.

From their '61 Cavern Club debut to their last rooftop concert eight years later, The Beatles gave every serious artist in their wake the songbook and sound for their career. It's the musical trough from which nearly every musician drinks.

We must remember that the people for whom this change represents a first taste of freedom and a new and brighter future did not allow their resolution to falter, no matter how great the suffering by which they bought this independence.
