Like when you sit in front of a fire in winter — you are just there in front of the fire. You don't have to be smart or anything. The fire warms you.
We must be ready to learn from one another, not claiming that we alone possess all truth and that somehow we have a corner on God.
If fruit juices or sugar solutions are left to stand in the open air, they show after a few days the processes which are covered by the name of fermentation phenomena.
We allowed ourselves to become particularly interested in research into the appearance of intermediate products of sugar decomposition during cell-free fermentation.
Remember, a chip on the shoulder is a sure sign of wood higher up.
It is particularly moving, and I can say this also as a Protestant Christian, that a German - one of us - has been made Pope.
Satan's survival-of-the-fittest system appears to work- in the short run. But the great controversy is about the long run.
