What is widely regarded as a struggle between the religious and the secular is really a struggle between religions. The current strife over such issues as abortion is perfectly in order, because it is an attempt by both sides to establish a rule of order in accordance with basic religious precepts. Man is the autonomous ruler of himself, able to define right and wrong and frame statutes according to whatever he defines as just. Or else man is created and sustained by a holy and just God who declares on matters of right and wrong in the form of law. Both are religious views held by faith. In the most basic sense there is no such thing as a secular culture.

ما يُنظَر له عادةً على أنّه صراعٌ بين الديني والعَلماني هو في حقيقتِه صراعٌ بين الأديان. فالنزاعُ الحالي حول مواضيع مثل الإجهاض ملائِمٌ تمامًا، لأنّه محاولةٌ من كلا الطرفين لوضعِ شريعةٍ تنظيمية تتناسبُ مع مبادئٍ دينيةٍ أساسية: فإمّا أنّ الإنسانَ هو حاكِمُ ذاتِه وهو الذي يُعرِّفُ ماهيةَ الصوابِ والخطأ ويَضَعُ التشريعاتِ وفقَ ما يراهُ عادلًا. أو أنّ الإنسانَ مخلوقٌ، ومُعتنىً به، مِن قِبَلِ إلهٍ مقدّسٍ وعادِل هو الذي يَفصِلُ، بشكلِ شرائعَ إلهية، في أمورِ الصواب والخطأ. كِلاهُما يمثّلانِ نظرةً دينيةً تقومُ على الإيمان. إذ بالمعنى الأساسي للكلمة، لا يوجدُ ما يُسمّى بالثقافة العَلمانية.

It feels like I just lost a friend...
Forwarded from حَفْرِيَّات المَعْرِفة (حسين المحسن)
النبيل لا يتنبَّل، كما أن الفصيح لا يتفصح؛ لأن النبيل يكفيه نُبله عن التنبُل، والفصيح تكفيه فصاحته عن التفصح..ولم يتزيّد أحد قط إلا لنقصٍ يجده في نفسه، ولا تطاول متطاول إلا لوهنٍ أحس به في قوته.

Sometimes, I think that those who know too much, the intellects among us, are the ugliest ones ever.
Just like when morticians embalm a dead body to make it look good, smell good, and conceal its stench, some of those whom we call "great minds" conceal the stench of their dead, decomposed souls under the mask of intellect.
But in the end, even a great mortician cannot fake the warmth of a living body.
