Dangerous Minds

"The thinker... disturbs the complacent. He obstructs the busy pragmatists. He questions the very foundations of all around him, and in so doing throws doubts upon aims, motives, and purposes which those running affairs have neither time nor patience to investigate. The thinker is a nuisance."

from The Post-Evangelical by Dave Tomlinson, page 59.

People can have good, productive thinking and they can have equally negative and destructive thoughts. If only more people would take the time to read the bible and learn about Jesus - more God-centered thinking would add wonders to the world. Some of the secular, non believing thinking is what many would agree - is the part of the problem.

Not only is the thinker known as a nuisance, we might add that the thinker becomes despised and hated simply by asking questions. In the end, the thinker is left with few friends.
