The Reign Of Untruth

...the chaos of greed, violence, ambition and lust which the New Testament calls 'the World,' (1 John 2:16) is to a great extent the reign of untruth. It is a place of confusion and falsehood where the spirit is enslaved and where one does not easily learn God's ways."

  1. Nice to see something attributed to Thomas Merton, he is not a really welcome site by many Catholics. However I love his writings .
    thanks and would love to see more of his writings or at least comments on them

  2. Thomas Merton is beloved by a large number of Catholics. Zeal toward him began to wane once he began embracing Eastern Mysticism to the detriment of the far greater depths of Mystical Prayers within his own faith; i.e...the Desert Fathers, St. John of the Cross, et al.
