Marcus J. Borg Quote
It is a life of deep commitment and gentle certitude. Deep commitment, because it involves one’s whole being. Gentle certitude, because it is gentle, soft, regarding particular verbal formulations of Christianity, including precise doctrinal statements. These are always human products. They are to be valued as such and to be reformulated when necessary. Depth of commitment and dogmatic certainty about a particular set of beliefs are not the same thing.
