| | The Swamp : Man-Thing's link with the swamp. |
| | Returning Sallis to his former state would indeed avail the human race of his scientific mind, but I feel this example shows that his interests were heavily misplaced, for a truly wise man would have attempted to halt war rather than develop methods of furthering it. | | | Sallis, during his life, was a man much like the rest of us, neither a very bad man nor a very good one. | | | And being mindless Man-Thing is the Swamp's perfect servant, for he has no desire that would interfere with his unsuspected duties. |

| | Faithfulness vs Faith: Flannery O'Connor's Wise Blood by Pamela Demory |
| | O’Connor’s Wise Blood may be a novel about salvation, but Huston’s Wise Blood is a story about a man who suffers from a tragic delusion. | | | All quotations from Wise Blood come from this edition; subsequent page numbers are cited in the text. | | | The difference between the two "languages" is particularly significant in a novel like Wise Blood, which is dependent for much of its symbolic purpose on linguistic distance. |

| | Flannery O'Connor: Wise Blood |
| | She says in the author's note to Wise Blood that all comic novels that are any good must be about life and death. | | | Unlike many modern writers who claim that God has turned his back on man, O'Connor believes that the opposite is true. | | | The text was Brooks and Warren, Understanding Fiction; now her "A Good Man is Hard to Find" is included in the anthology. |

| | BrothersJudd.com - Review of Flannery O'Connor's Wise Blood |
| | Wise Blood is Flannery O'Connor's grotesque picaresque tale of Hazel Motes of Eastrod, Tennessee; a young man who has come to the city of Taulkinham bringing with him an enormous resentment of Christianity and the clergy. | | | Wise Blood is a superior novel in every sense and really deserves that spot on the list. | | | But it is devoid of humor and has nothing to say about the characters and the world they've created. |

| | God-Centered vs. Man-Centered Theology |
| | The man-centered side reflects many popular, but unbiblical, perspectives and attitudes that have crept into Christian thinking (particularly in the Western evangelical community) and have received far too much toleration than could ever be wise or spiritually healthy for the church of Jesus Christ. | | | Though few of us are theologians by vocation, each of us (even the atheist) has his or her “theology.” What matters ultimately is not whether we have a perspective on who God is, His nature and character qualities, and His relationship to man, but what kind of perspective we have. | | | ...is motivated in evangelism chiefly by a heartfelt, irresistible desire to proclaim the greatness of God to others, a divinely inspired love for the lost, and a humble (if not fearful) sense of obedience. |

| | THE OMEGA MAN |
| | The Omega Man joins a significant cycle of movies that ran from the start of the 1970s and continued well into the middle of that decade, which included works like Robert Wise's The Andromeda Strain (70) and George A. Romero's The Crazies (73) and exploited public anxieties about biological and chemical warfare. | | | In the post-apocalyptic environment in which The Omega Man is located, the character of Jonathan Mathias considers himself a messianic figure, leading his followers through a form of purgatory, in the form of their corrupt physical condition, toward forgiveness from God. | | | Dismissed by both genre and mainstream critics on its release in 1971, it is now perhaps time for The Omega Man to be reassessed as a fascinating, multi-layered work in its own right and not merely the inept reworking of a major science fiction novel, that its reputation suggests. |

| | Man's Destiny in the Universe by Swami Krishnananda |
| | One of its manifestations in a pre-eminent way is man's assumption that he is all-wise and his wisdom is incomparable, while its cruder forms take the shape of intolerance of the more respectable attitudes which the few enlightened ones entertain in life. | | | The unending longing of man and his hope for a better future, in spite of the defeats he suffers in all his efforts, prove that there is an eternal ground of being behind temporal succession. | | | The causal relationship which man observes in Nature is a humorous conjecture of his mind, made in respect of what really happens in Nature as a whole. |
