Rudolf Bultmann Quotes:
Life: August 20, 1884 - July 30, 1976
Birthday: August 20
Death: July 30
It is impossible to repristinate a past world picture by sheer resolve, especially a mythical world picture, now that all of our thinking is irrevocably formed by science. A blind acceptance of New Testament mythology would be simply arbitrariness; to make such acceptance a demand of faith would be to reduce faith to a work.
