The Beauties of Religion

THE BEAUTIES OF RELIGION.—In conversing with those who have an aversion to religion, we should begin by showing them that it is by no means contrary to reason; in the next place, that it is worthy of veneration, to inspire them with respect for it; and after this we should describe it as lovely, to make them wish it to be true; and then we may demonstrate it to them by irrefragable proofs that it is true; we may show them its antiquity and holiness, its majesty and sublimity, and finally show them it is amicable in that it holds out to us the true good.—Pascal.
