At the centre of Christianity is community; we are gathered by the Lord around the altar.

We can identify with Frodo and Sam, setting off not knowing quite where they are going and what they are to do.

The next challenge for Christianity is to remind Europeans that we are called to seek the truth.

I believe that my own Christian faith does indeed make universal claims.

Seeking the good is not primarily about rules and commandments.

Claiming that you have got the truth wrapped up does breed violence and intolerance.

Despite all the lunacy of the last century, all the absurdity of war and genocide, we believe that humans being are rational and are made to seek the truth.

Indeed if we Christians so tell our story that Judaism is silenced, then we have not spoken rightly of Christ.

At the centre of Christianity is community; we are gathered by the Lord around the altar.

This evening I wish to suggest that we Christians should accompany people on their pilgrimages. Specifically we should travel with people as they search for the good, the true and the beautiful.

All the Abrahamic faiths are marked by violence.

Most religions live from a narrative that shapes their relationship with the divine other, God or the gods, and with the human other, the stranger.

Clearly a big challenge for Christianity is how to remain in contact with the millions of people who look for God but do not come to Church.

We need a place in which we may flourish and be ourselves.

What can the Church do? If she stands by her moral teaching, then she will be seen as standing in judgement over a vast percentage of Europeans.

Christians can bring peace to multi-religious Europe because we are able to understand the role of faith in the lives of other believers better than atheists.

The trouble is that after nine years as a Jack of all trades and Master of the Dominican Order, I have no expertise on anything except airports and exotic foods.

One of our deepest needs is to be at home.

Thinking that morality is all about commandments is a relatively new way of thinking, since the Reformation.

The medieval Church believed that the resurrection of Christ marked a new time for all of humanity.

To be frank, I suspect that today there is little respect for Christianity as source of moral teaching about goodness.

To be a preacher requires two apparently contradictory qualities: confidence and humility.

Our society has lost confidence in the power of reason, except perhaps scientific reason.

The unutterable violence of the Holocaust shook our confidence in the possibility of telling any story of faith at all.

I believe that his death and resurrection transformed humanity's relationship with God.

Celibacy is not just a matter of not having sex. It is a way of admiring a person for their humanity, maybe even for their beauty.

The primary source of the appeal of Christianity was Jesus - His incarnation, His life, His crucifixion, and His resurrection.

The history of Christianity, therefore, must be of concern to all who are interested in the record of man and particularly to all who seek to understand the contemporary human scene.

Capitalism without bankruptcy is like Christianity without hell.

Organized Christianity has always represented immortality as a sort of common heritage; but I never could see why spiritual life should not be conditioned on the same terms as all life, i. e., correspondence with environment.

Christianity is a battle not a dream.

I think that the core doctrines of Christianity - the incarnation, the resurrection, life after death-these are as strong as ever. In fact, the belief in life after death has increased in this century.

I don't know which will go first - rock 'n' roll or Christianity.

Among the many reasons assignable for the sad decay of true Christianity, perhaps the neglecting to assemble ourselves together, in religious societies, may not be one of the least.

Christianity supplies a Hell for the people who disagree with you and a Heaven for your friends.

It seems true that the growth of science and secularism made organized Christianity feel under threat.

The next challenge for Christianity is to remind Europeans that we are called to seek the truth.

I never saw, heard, nor read, that the clergy were beloved in any nation where Christianity was the religion of the country. Nothing can render them popular, but some degree of persecution.

First of all, the Jewish religion has a great deal in common with the Christian religion because, as Rabbi Gillman points out in the show, Christianity is based on Judaism. Christ was Jewish.

Christianity is usually called a religion. As a religion it has had a wider geographic spread and is more deeply rooted among more peoples than any other religion in the history of mankind.

I am a communist because I believe that the Communist idea is a state form of Christianity.

With reference to other religions, the Church sees a great difference between them and herself. The other religions are expressions of the human soul seeking God, with some beautiful spiritual insights, but also not without errors. Christianity is rather God seeking humanity.

Christianity is the greatest civilizing, moulding, uplifting power on this globe.

Western civilization, Christianity, decency are struggling for their very lives. In this worldwide civil war, race prejudice is our most dangerous enemy, for it is a disease at the very root of our democratic life.

It is true that Christianity is not bound up with any particular race or culture. It is neither of the East or of the West, but has a universal mission to the human race as a whole.
