"Many religions
have been brought to this land. And the way my religion is, they teach me, and
they taught me, and told me to respect all religions. And I still do
that."
Horace
Axtell Nez Perce
Much
to our relief, we discovered we did not need to consider another's conception
of God. Our own conception, however inadequate, was sufficient to make the
approach and to effect a contact with Him. As soon as we admitted the possible
existence of a Creative Intelligence, a Spirit of the Universe underlying the
totality of things, we began to be possessed of a new sense of power and
direction, provided we took other simple steps. We found that God does not make
too hard terms with those who seek Him. To us, the Realm of Spirit is broad,
roomy, all inclusive; never exclusive or forbidding to those who earnestly
seek. It is open, we believe, to all men.
