Two Thoughts Taken Together.

This morning I had two thoughts come to me from different sources, but when taken together prove to be very interesting...

From my desk calendar: "My definition of a free society is a society where it is safe to be unpopular" (Adlai Stevenson)

And...

....from C S Lewis "love your neighbour as yourself"

It is good to feel safe when you are unpopular (I am not sure that actually happens mostly) and it is good to be loved by others in the way that they love themselves (I am not sure that actually happens either).

Is it because we live in a fallen world?

Have a great day,

Peter Clark.
