"I do not assert nor have I ever asserted that every Christian must be a martyr, even though I think that every true Christian should - and here I include myself - make the humble admission that he has been let off far more easily than true Christians in the strictest sense. Without authority, Christianity now creeps around in worn-out, shabby clothes, and we do not know whether we should take our hats off to it in the name of progress, or whether it should bow to us, whether we need its compassion, or wether it needs ours."
-Kierkegaard
