If Religion Cannot Restrain Evil,

Again, Both Literature And Philosophy Work By Appealing To Certain Reigning Idols.

Cruel Persecutions And Intolerance Are Not Accidents, But Grow Out Of The Very Essence Of Religion, Namely, Its Absolute Claims.

Liberalism Is An Attitude Rather Than A Set Of Dogmas - An Attitude That Insists Upon Questioning All Plausible And Self-evident Propositions, Seeking Not To Reject Them But To Find Out What Evidence There Is To Support Them Rather Than Their Possible Alternatives.

Lastly, Literature And Philosophy Both Allow Past Idols To Be Resurrected With A Frequency Which Would Be Truly Distressing To A Sober Scientist.

Inertia Is The First Law Of History, As It Is Of Physics.
