Some time ago I was talking with a young man about choosing fully and entirely the Christian way of life. He replied that he did not think it was worth it. In the first place he wanted to make money.
Christians are nor particularly concerned with that.
Furthermore, up until then he had not made the grade as a Christian. He did not think he could make it. He did not wish to lose both the pleasures of this life and those of the next. For him religion was all right for old ladies, sick people, and solemn functions. I was in Times Square, New York City.
