The greatest threat to life is a static mind. An uninspired individual, thoughtlessly following the dictates of society does not hold the power to add anything to the already existing pool of human knowledge and experience. When one willfully gives up his faculty to think and reason for himself, to make active decisions, bogged down by the mundane reality of everyday activities, he kills his propensity to give life to new ideas.
The Bible instructs us to break out of this induced insipidity when it says: “Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.” Our individuality and uniqueness, the faculty of our imaginations and our souls, when inspired and allowed to manifest themselves, are what create life, and reassert the being and message of God.
