Christianity, if false, is not important. If Christianity is true, however, it is of infinite importance. What it cannot be is moderately important.

You will not enter paradise until you have faith. And you will not complete your faith until you love one another.

Though wrong gratifies in the moment, good yields its gifts over a lifetime.

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. It does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

You can have religion with spirituality. You can also have religion without spirituality.

All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree.
