Mere Christianity- Elissa Wilcox

"Reality, in fact, is usually something you could not have guessed. That is one of the reasons I believe Christianity. It is a religion you could not have guessed. If it offered us just the kind of universe we had always expected, I should feel as though we were making it up. But, in fact, it is not the sort of thing anyone would have made up. It has just that queer twist about it that real things have." (Mere Christianity, pp. 41-42). I love this because I feel like Jesus talked about this, and that he wasn't the king that the disciples but he was a king. The fact that no one would have guessed that Christianity would have taken off the way it did and that it seems to be something that man could not have made up makes it more believable.
