Summary

This quote suggests that society tends to overlook or ignore the absence of a father figure in a person's life. It highlights how the lack of a father's presence is often so normalized that it becomes a silent issue, leaving those affected without an outlet to discuss the impact it may have on their lives. This quote implies a need for greater attention and conversation regarding absent fathers, in order to understand the possible implications and provide support for those affected by this absence.

There are a lot of obstacles in the way of our understanding

There are a lot of obstacles in the way of our understanding animal intelligence - not the least being that we can't even agree whether nonhuman species are conscious. We accept that chimps and dolphins experience awareness we like to think dogs and cats do. But what about mice and newts? What about a fly? Is anything going on there at all?

Jesus said several times, Come, follow me. His was a program

Jesus said several times, Come, follow me. His was a program of do what I do, rather than do what I say. His innate brilliance would have permitted him to put on a dazzling display, but that would have left his followers far behind. He walked and worked with those he was to serve. His was not a long-distance leadership. He was not afraid of close friendships; he was not afraid that proximity to him would disappoint his followers. The leaven of true leadership cannot lift others unless we are with and serve those to be led.
