Deutsche Übersetzung

Denn der Maßstab des christlichen Lebens sollte auf eine höhere Tonhöhe gespannt werden; mehr Fasten war erforderlich und eine vorsichtige Trennung von den Sitten und Genüssen der Welt; Für das Zölibat und das Martyrium wurde großer Wert auf sie gelegt, und eine zweite Ehe wurde verboten.

We're all screwed up. And the way Christians mess things up is we act like we've got it going on. And if we would just stay in that place of, 'Hey, we're all screwed up and but for the grace of God, none of us have a shot here.'
