The Universal Parent has dispensed his blessing throughout all creation. . . . [including] Christian, Jew, or Turk. What a lesson did the great author of our religion give to mankind by the parable of the Jew and the Samaritan; but how little has it been regarded! To the glory of the present age they are shaking off that narrow contracted spirit of priestcraft and usurpation which has for so many ages tyrannized over the minds of mankind, and deluged the world in blood. . . . Religion [should be] . . . a wise and benevolent system, calculated . . . to harmonize mankind to the temper of its great Author, who came to make peace, and not to destroy.28
