Thank God for my encountering this lecture! It relates to matters I've been pondering... This is possibly the first time I have listened to the renowned professor. Heard some good stuff here to process and got references to check. To God be the Glory! May God bless Prof. Hauerwas and Emory.
Hauerwas's use of Weil here was interesting: desire for quality of privilege as both absurd and base. Absurd because privilege inherently requires inequality and base because the privileges desired were not worth having
Christians are to be a light to the world,when Christ went to the cross he did not revile,the bible say be not conformed. to the world,but be transformed by the renewing of you mind,we are to do what his word says,freedom comes from God not man,How can the world see Christ in us if we are trying to conform the world,we are to conform are minds,the bible says we are not of this world,God left his word for us to read and live it out,Christ came to redeem us buy us back and it was accomplished at the cross,If more people read the bible and listen to what God said instead of listen to man,living out Gods word would bring so many people to glorify the God of heaven ,and the word became flesh and swelled among man,Christ being God in the flesh humbled himself taking on the form of a slave to buy us back,he lived out the word .
There can be no right against the whim of the power that enforces said rights. Rights are men's claims against other men. A god has no right against men's judgement due to the impotence the former.

something anti-christian about the introduction
