War

There was a question asked during World War 2. It was, in the context of the war, and the fact that people can die anytime, why should people still continue to do things like, say, learning chemistry or literature?

One answer given was that the question is not whether people should learn literature during war, but whether people should learn literature at all. The war had "merely" heightened (and perhaps increased) the fact that people can die anytime..

"The border to eternity is never ahead of us. It is always parallel to us" said Reinhard Bonnke during the conference on Good Friday.

Things worth doing in the face of death are always worth doing. And things not worth doing in the face of death.. probably are not worth doing in the first place..
