..-,. , , a muddle of ideas out of which no real convictions are formed, that we are really capable of knowing very little. Soon, however, this will not be the case. Soon, each philosophy will be crystal-clear, and, with the boldness of youth, we will have selected those aspects of each we consider of the most fundamental truth, and we will be proud because we will have something more than any of their originators. It is then that we will cease to be impressed by the fact that these men were infinitely more intelligent than we, studied and thought much more than we, and yet arrived at basically different conclusions from each other con- cerning life. Perhaps it is then that we will forget what we now suspect and must always remember: that we are really capable of knowing little, and that very possibly the broadest limitation we put on the ideas of man are still too narrow. It is as true today as it was two thousand years ago that each nation is as strong or as weak as the individuals making up that nation. On thousands of platforms such as this today and during this month, it will be urged that the spirit of conformity in this country is weakening the individual libre of each of its citizens and thus is weakening the nation itself. Agreeing with this in saying that each must develop and live by his own individual values, I am convinced that it is equally important to realize these four things: First, that the frailty of the human mind demands respect for those who have fundamentally different conceptions of truth from ourselves. Second, that whatever we have decided is true for ourselves has no real value for another unless he believes it to be true. Third, that we must develop from these realizations logical humility and toler- ance of the beliefs of others. Fourth, that this humility and tolerance must not be simply intellectual, but must so infect every action and idea as to inspire each person with whom we have contact with the vital importance of this inspiration to peace on every level of being from the human soul to the world itself.
