Excerpt from The Press, the Pulpit and the Stage: A Lecture Delivered at Central Music Hall, Chicago, November 28, 1882
To those who lack the courage to repel openly that which in secret they feel to be false, and so continue to sit under the preaching of men licensed by theology to cloud the teaching of Him they profess to follow, these thoughts are dedicated with the hope of aiding to break the darkness with which they surround themselves.
