The lessons of religious toleration - a toleration which recognizes complete liberty of human thought, liberty of conscience - is one which, by precept and example, must be inculcated in the hearts and minds of all Americans if the institutions of our democracy are to be maintained and perpetuated.

Ideas first and last: yet it is not till these are formulated and utilized that the devotees of the common sense discern their value and advantages.
