Rome is the Great Beast of atheism and materialism, adoring nothing but itself. Israel is the Great Beast of religion. Neither one nor the other is likable. The Great Beast is always repulsive.

Simone Weil

John Wesley

Without language we would have no reason, without reason no religion, and without these three essential aspects of our nature, neither mind nor bond of society.
