Nothing new

150Px-Heinrich Rudolf Hertz

The great Christian revolutions come not by the discovery of something that was not known before.

They happen when someone takes radically something that was already there.

Helmut Richard Niebuhr (1894-1962)

    Yessss! This is exactly what I discovered in The Forgotten Ways. Its not inventng, but rediscovering. Or as someone has said, renovating old truths.
