When Faith Is Completely Replaced By Creed, Worship By Discipline, Love By Habit; When The Crisis Of Today Is Ignored Because Of The Splendors Of The Past; When Faith Becomes An Heirloom Rather Than A Living Fountain; When Religion Speaks Only In The Name Of Authority Rather Than With The Voice Of Compassion, Its Message Becomes Meaningless.

Then Comes The Insight That All Is God. One Still Realizes That The World Is As It Was, But It Does Not Matter, It Does Not Affect One's Faith.

Religion Has Become An Impersonal Affair, An Institutional Loyalty. It Survives On The Level Of Activities Rather Than In The Stillness Of Commitment.
