Leo Tolstoy Quotes

I Saw That All Who Do Not Profess An Identical Faith With Themselves Are Considered By The Orthodox To Be Heretics, Just As The Catholics And Others Consider The Orthodox To Be Heretics. And I Saw That The Orthodox (though They Try To Hide This) Regard With Hostility All Who Do Not Express Their Faith By The Same External Symbols And Words As Themselves; And This Is Naturally So; First, Because The Assertion That You Are In Falsehood And I Am In Truth, Is The Most Cruel Thing One Man Can Say To Another; And Secondly, Because A Man Loving His Children And Brothers Cannot Help Being Hostile To Those Who Wish To Pervert His Children And Brothers To A False Belief. And That Hostility Is Increased In Proportion To One's Greater Knowledge Of Theology. And To Me Who Considered That Truth Lay In Union By Love, It Became Self-evident That Theology Was Itself Destroying What It Ought To Produce.
