Jt says 'Philosophy has nothing at
all to do with what I am about...' 'It is not necessary that so many people should read the
philosophers for their ideas to prevail.
Deadly viruses produced in the high country of
the mind' can get into the streams, run down and be picked up by the plants
below; the sociologists and psychologists, the imaginative writers, novelists
and poets, who grow them into edible form on which thousands unwittingly
feed.' (Everyman Revived - The Common Sense of Michael Polanyi)
jt: Let Polanyi speak for
himself, Mark Twain master of American common sense wrote
about the human condition: "In one way or
another all men are mad. � All the whole list of desires, predilections,
aversions, ambitions, passions, cares, griefs, regrets, remorses, are
incipient madness, and ready to grow, spread and consume, when the occasion comes."
Christ came to renew our sanity when we are willing
to renew our minds by His Word.
