This larger outlook which the study of comparative religion gives to a man may set him free from being confined to dogmas of a single creed or the practices of a single religion. If he feels happier with this liberation why should he not abide by it? Why should he build walls around his faith and customs? Why must he go only into a church and not into a mosque, only into a synagogue and not into a temple? Why should he not feel free to go into all of those if he wishes--in other words, to be able to worship anywhere in any place at any time?
