“There are many bibles of different religions; there is the Mohammedan Koran, the Buddhist Canon of Sacred Scripture, the Zoroastrian Zend-Avesta, and the Brahman Veda . . . they all begin with some flashes of true light, and end in utter darkness.

Why are so many bored, when the times demand action? Christ told us that in the last days there would be an insipid attitude toward life.”
