The Love Of Americans For Their Country

Absolute Atheism Starts In An Act Of Faith In Reverse Gear And Is A Full-blown Religious Commitment.

I Don't See America As A Mainland, But As A Sea, A Big Ocean. Sometimes A Storm Arises, A Formidable Current Develops, And It Seems It Will Engulf Everything. Wait A Moment, Another Current Will Appear And Bring The First One To Naught.

For To Love Is To Give What One Is, His Very Being, In The Most Absolute, The Most Brazenly Metaphysical, The Least Phenomenalizable Sense Of This Word.

It Is Implanted In The Christian Soul, By The Side Of The Running Waters, Under The Sky Of The Theological Virtues, Amid The Breaths Of The Seven Gifts Of The Spirit. It Is Natural For It To Bear Christian Fruit.

Not Only Does The Democratic State Of Mind Stem From The Inspiration Of The Gospel, But It Cannot Exist Without It.
