Examples
This page is a collection of smallish examples that demonstrate that Man's ways do not work in the long run, while God's ways seem to work better. Pride in particular is a killer.
- On the working of pride in the human condition, and in human beings.
- On how it lies at the root of all evil and wrong.
- And how it is the thing that God hates above all, because of the harm it does, and because his own nature is the very opposite of pride.
This page has been replaced (though I expect to write a completely new page later). Please move to God's Ways Work; Human Ways Do Not.
