Everyone wants to show us how to enjoy life and be independent. But what about sacrifice and being a subordinate?
The former is very easy to comprehend, and so is easy to promote; every tom-dick-and-harry talks about it and they think it is the cool thing to do - oh, there is just one life, live it large. The latter is almost impossible to comprehend at first sight, and so is easy to deride; every tom-dick-and-harry derides it in a self-righteous way - why take so much trouble, do whatever pleases you and let others do whatever pleases them.
If one can't even appreciate acts of sacrifice and subordination to a superior, where is the question of understanding God and our relationship with Him? It's like trying to understand calculus without have any appreciation for addition. And yet, every tom-dick-and-harry has his own opinion about God.
Only one who has a decent training in Maths can understand the stupidity of those who try to speak about calculus without being able to clear their elementary exam. If everyone is a mathematical illiterate, then everyone can share their opinion about calculus fearlessly, no matter how stupid it is.
The society needs systematic training in understanding the fundamental principles of God and His relationship with the world and with each one of us. But will you come for the Class?
