Simplicity Should Not Be Identified With Bareness.

Dogma Is The Convictions Of One Man Imposed Authoritatively Upon Others.

Man Is Like A Tree, With The Mighty Trunk Of Intellect, The Spreading Branches Of Imagination, And The Roots Of The Lower Instincts That Bind Him To The Earth. The Moral Life, However, Is The Fruit He Bears; In It His True Nature Is Revealed.

It Is The Moral Element Contained In It That Alone Gives Value And Dignity To A Religion, And Only In So Far As Its Teachings Serve To Stimulate And Purify Our Moral Aspirations Does It Deserve To Retain Its Ascendency Over Mankind.

But Even Our Pleasures Are Calculated And Business Like. We Measure Our Enjoyments By The Sum Expended. Our Salons Are Often Little Better Than Bazaars Of Fashion.

The Freedom Of Thought Is A Sacred Right Of Every Individual Man, And Diversity Will Continue To Increase With The Progress, Refinement, And Differentiation Of The Human Intellect.
