I conclude that it is a fundamental mistake to think that salvation, justice, or virtue come through merely human institutions.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The salvation of this human world lies nowhere else than in the human heart, in the human power to reflect, in human meekness and human responsibility.
Human salvation lies in the hands of the creatively maladjusted.
I further believe that all must be saved through the merits of Christ.
I could be wrong about salvation. I could be wrong about a lot of things.
Justice is a temporary thing that must at last come to an end; but the conscience is eternal and will never die.
The mistake we make is to attribute to religions the errors and fanaticism of human beings.
Humanism was not wrong in thinking that truth, beauty, liberty, and equality are of infinite value, but in thinking that man can get them for himself without grace.
In justice to human society it may perhaps be said of almost all the polities and civil institutions in the world, however imperfect, that they have been founded in and carried on with very considerable wisdom.
When I study and ponder moral agency and its eternal consequences, I realize that we are truly spirit children of God and therefore should act accordingly.
I firmly believe that our salvation depends on the poor.
