Quote #9 on Religious Struggle Quotes >> Religious Powers and Cruelty

“All orthodox creeds are alike infamous. All of them have good things, and all of them have bad things. You will find in every creed the blossom of mercy and the oak of justice, but under the one and around the other are coiled the serpents of infinite cruelty.”
