it is the beginning of disorder.

nothing so bad but it can masquerade as moral.

To give a man
full knowledge of morality, I would send him to no other
book than the New Testament.

without religion is only a kind of dead reckoning -- an
endeavor to find our place on a cloudy sea by measuring the
distance we have run, but without any observation of the
heavenly bodies.
-- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
1819-1892, American Poet
