We are not masochists - the cross is not an end in itself; it is for glory. We Christians are not looking for suffering, but for joy. God, living in joy, wanted to communicate it to all people.

Christianity is not at all morality and prohibitions - first and foremost it is wonder before things.
Fabrice Hadjadj
