At the bottom of religious persecution is the doctrine of self-defence; that is to say, the defence of the soul. If the founder of Christianity had plainly said: 'It is not necessary to believe in order to be saved; it is only necessary to do, and he who really loves his fellow-men, who is kind, honest, just and charitable, is to be forever blest' - if he had only said that, there would probably have been but little persecution.

If one of those musicians is sharply out of tune or starts to play a different piece of music than all the others in the orchestra, you immediately notice.

What I've created for you is a perfect model of how we should be listening to our stock market, rather than trying to see it graphically.

It can be shown that an incorporeal and reasonable being has life in itself independently of the body. . . then it is beyond a doubt bodies are only of secondary importance and arise from time to time to meet the varying conditions of reasonable creatures. Those who require bodies are clothed with them, and contrariwise, when fallen souls have lifted themselves up to better things their bodies are once more annihilated. They are ever vanishing and ever reappearing.
