Paul Tillich on religion

In all existential knowledge both subject and object are transformed by the very act of knowing.

A self which has become a matter of calculation and management has ceased to be a self. It has become a thing. You must participate in a self in order to know what it is.

Faith is the state of being ultimately concerned.

The Bible is not my book, and Christianity is not my religion. I could never give assent to the long, complicated statements of Christian dogma.
