Thomas Jefferson

“He who steadily observes the moral precepts in which all religions concur, will never be questioned at the gates of heaven as to the dogmas in which they all differ.” – Thomas Jefferson, 1813

With all the fighting in the world over religious beliefs, of who is right or wrong, which is the correct path to follow resulting in violence, torture and death because of a belief, the quote from Thomas Jefferson never rang more true than today.

If people set aside for one moment their dogmatic beliefs and looked at the moral precepts taught by nearly all religions, they would begin to see that the followers are seeking the same truths, the same connections with the Divine Source, then and only then may we begin to set aside the differences in dogmas and begin to live a more peaceful life in harmony, love, and respect for all humans.
