My resentment

"extra-biblical"

People will fucking drop out and go orange hardcore

Development of doctrine

As an orange principle

Realizing that the church is a part of the world, accepting that, and doing something with it

Some sort of mythology

That they can comfortably call mythology

Direction, vocation, guidance

Someone to encourage them to follow the truth wherever it leads them

Someone to authorize their thirst for answers

Ultimate concern
