Surely the atheist has not injured God, and surely he is human, capable of joy and pain, and entitled to all the rights of man. Why a difference of opinion upon predestination, or the trinity, should make people imprison and burn each other seems beyond the comprehension of man and yet in all countries where Christians have existed, they have destroyed each other to the exact extent of their power. It is amazing to me that a difference of opinion upon subjects that we know nothing with certainty about, should make us hate, persecute, and despise each other. This earth will be a paradise when men can, upon all these questions differ, and yet grasp each other's hands as friends. Mankind will be enslaved until there is mental grandeur enough to allow each man to have his thought and say. “Until every soul is freely permitted to investigate every book, and creed, and dogma for itself, the world cannot be free. "That what is true?" Will's fingers were still digging into Jem's wrist. I feared you would be left alone inside that wall. I did wonder what my death would mean for you. I thought you would let me inside if I became your parabatai, and then you would have at least someone to lean upon. But no one should shoulder every burden alone. "There is a wall you have built about yourself, Will, and I have never asked you why. "No better offers forthcoming?" Will tried for humor, but his voice cracked like glass. Have you ever asked yourself why I agreed to be your parabatai?" 'Until aught but death part thee and me.' Someday, Will, I will go where none can follow me, and I think it will be sooner rather than later.
