Christian church is absolutely necessary to civilization
If its existence threatened the great of the
people would fight for it,
But by some curious knk in their mental processes,
many non-churchgoerS fail to perceive that everybody
else followed their example-and every honest person
grants others the right to do he does-the churches
would quickly pass out of existence.
