There are people who want to make men's lives more difficult for no other reason than the chance it provides them afterwards to offer their prescription for alleviating life; their Christianity, for instance.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Christianity has aimed to deliver us from a life determined by nature, from the appetites as actuating us, and so has meant that man should not let himself be determined by his appetites.

Some men have thousands of reasons why they cannot do what they want to, when all they need is one reason why they can.
There is nothing in this world which men desire and struggle for, and that is good for them, of which there is not enough for everybody.
Men try to run life according to their wishes; life runs itself according to necessity.
In the affairs of this world, men are saved not by faith, but by the want of it.
Why the Christian life is so difficult to many is because they have a divided heart. They are double-minded, which makes them unstable in all their ways.
The only thing that stands between a man and what he wants from life is often merely the will to try it and the faith to believe that it is possible.
Men don't have as many difficulties and are more supported to combine the different aspects of their life.
Some men are willing to die for their faith, but they are not willing to fully live for it. Christ both lived and died for us.
