Browsing Quotes With Tag: natural-selection (1)

Man . . . was made from different and opposite substances [i.e., dust and spirit] . . . [and] these two things contend against each other in man: so that if the [spirit of man], which has its origin from God, gains the mastery, it is immortal, and lives in perpetual light; if, on the other hand, the body shall overpower the [spirit], and subject it to its dominion, it is in everlasting darkness and death . . . [and will subject] them to everlasting punishment.

Speaker: Lactantius, "The Divine Institutes" 2:13, in Roberts and Donaldson (1994), 7:61
