Three philosophies of life


The difference between philosophy and religion is the difference between speaking and listening, between man’s speaking about God and God’s speaking about man with man listening. This is the difference between reason and faith. Philosophy is man’s search for God; the Bible is the story of God’s search for man. Ecclesiastes is the only book in the bible where God is silent.
from Peter Kreeft’s Three Philosophies of Life
Ecclesiastes: Life as Vanity
Job: Life as Suffering
Songs of Songs: Life as Love
