“Men inhale their beliefs from the atmosphere which happens to surround them. This is true in every department of thought, e.g., politics, art, religion. Were Christians asked to-day for the reasons of their belief the many (should they answer truly) could only reply, “We inhaled it.” They did not reach it by thorough, independent, untrammeled investigation.” - E. NISBET Rock Island , Ill. , June 17th, 1876
