So no, I’m not too big on religion...and not very fond of politics or economics either... And why should I be? They are the man-created trinity of terrors that ravages the earth and deceives those I care about. What mental turmoil and anxiety does any human face that is not related to one of those three? William Paul Young
About This Quote

When someone says they are not too big on religion, they are telling you that they are not afraid to question it. They do not believe in an organized religion, but they do believe in the power of prayer. They are not too big on politics because they find the idea of government unappealing. They do not like the idea of economics because they feel that there is too much emphasis on money in our world.

Religion, politics and economics are man-made trinity of terrors that ravages the earth and deceives those I care about. What mental turmoil and anxiety does any human face that is not related to one of those three?
