Excerpt from A Race's Redemption Never say you think as other people think simply to please them, not even when those other people have acquired the right of calling themselves by such names as churches, associations, synods, conventions, conferences, assemblies or councils. It would be bad for you and not much better for them. You need your own self-respect and the approval of that God who made you a rational being that you might weigh and decide for yourself in matters of every sort. These people, too, need the thought you are able to add to theirs quite as much as you need that which they are able to add to yours, and the less they feel that need the greater it is. Therefore be true to your intellect that you may be true at once to yourself and all other men. Even though you cannot deny that there must be undetected error mixed with your truth, be not abashed, but say out your word bravely, for the case is no better with them. The old heresies did not have salt enough in them to preserve them even to our time, and there are only a few sincere things extant with more of vanity and less of truth in them than portions of the ancient orthodoxies, they are all so mixed with the old paganisms. And are they not, at the same time, all very distressingly of our own flesh and blood, too - our very own?
