“No proverb ever supplanted the patience of Job or the wisdom of Solomon… Moses has never been surpassed in statesmanship. A scientific theology is pointing out the footprints of the Creator to common sense. The brotherhood of man, the Fatherhood of God, is becoming the cornerstone of religion, as revealed in Christ, and as clearly traced in human history.“
– James Gillespie Blaine,
Secretary of State under Presidents Garfield and Harrison.
