"I do not believe in God. My mind finds no grounds on which to build up a
reasonable faith. My heart revolts against the spectre of an Almighty
Indifference to the pain of sentient beings. My conscience rebels against
the injustice, the cruelty, the inequality, which surround me on every
side. But I believe in Man. In man's redeeming power; in man's remoulding
energy; in man's approaching triumph, through knowledge, love and work."
[Annie Besant (1847-1933)]
