For no art and no religion is possible until we make allowances, until we manage to keep quiet the enfant terrible of logic that plays havoc with the other faculties.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We are conscious that religions cannot solve the economic, political and social problems of this earth.
Not until the human heart is stolid to poetry, the human eye blind to beauty, not until the intellect ceases its quest for truth and conscience finds its quietus either in universal defeat or in triumphant success, will organized religion cease to be.
Religion enables us to ignore nothingness and get on with the jobs of life.
A religion without rules or God isn't sustainable.
Religion leaves no room for human complexity.
Set religion free, and a new humanity will begin.
Religion provides us with a puritanical dream, which can never be realized because it goes against human nature.
All who think cannot but see there is a sanction like that of religion which binds us in partnership in the serious work of the world.
We can have our beliefs and still read and discuss things.
We have seen that no religion stands on the basis of things known; none bounds its horizon within the field of human observation; and, therefore, as it can never present us with indisputable facts, so must it ever be at once a source of error and contention.
