“The great end in religious instruction is not to stamp our minds on the young, but to stir up their own. Not to make them see with our eyes, but to look inquiringly and steadily with their own. Not to give them a definite amount of knowledge, but to inspire a fervent love of truth. Not to impose religion upon them in the form of arbitrary rules, but to awaken the conscience, the moral discernment . . . In a word, the great end is to awaken the soul . . .”
William Ellery Channing (1839)
