This opening up of old mentally shut-in states, this dissolution of long-standing bigoted sectarianism, will increasingly be one characteristic of the age. They are being brought to pay, by attack from without and disintegration from within, for the falsity they contain. It is true that in the course of time, human nature being what it is at the present degree of evolution, the new conditions that will replace them will become as shut-in, as bigoted, and as selfish as the earlier ones. When that happens they too will be called to an accounting.
