| I think religion, ideology, economy, and political systems are all man's creation. Since they are man's creation, they must relate with human feeling and the human spirit. If they are practiced with human feeling, they fulfill some basic human aspirations. The various religions and ideologies are meant for humanity and not the opposite. |

| Quote of the moment |
| I am perhaps being a bit facetious but if some of my good Baptist brethren in Georgia had done a little preaching from the pulpit against the K.K.K. in the ‘20s, I would have a little more genuine American respect for their Christianity! |
| ~ Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945), U.S. president. letter, Jan. 12, 1940, to Senator Josiah W. Bailey of North Carolina. The Roosevelt Letters, vol. 3, pp. 304-305, ed. Elliott Roosevelt, George G. Harrup & Co., Ltd. (1952). Bailey had written the President objecting to Myron Taylor being designated as an Ambassador to the Vatican, contending that the title would offend some Protestant groups in America. FDR took this occasion to suggest that such groups in the South had exhibited a peculiar lack of real Christian values in the past and their complaints were not very worrisome to him. ~ |

| Man, in the ideal, is so noble and so sparkling, such a grand and glowing creature, that over any ignominious blemish in him all his fellows should run to throw their costliest robes. |
