The source of your duties is in God

The source of your duties is in God. The definition of your duties is found in His law. The progressive discovery and application of His law is the mission of humanity. God exists. I am not bound to prove this to you, nor shall I endeavor to do so. To me the attempt would seem blasphemous, as the denial appears madness. God exists, because we exist. God lives in our conscience, in the conscience of humanity. Our conscience invokes Him in our most solemn moments of grief and joy. Humanity has been able to transform, to disfigure, never to suppress His holy name. The universe bears witness to Him in the order, harmony, and intelligence of its movements and its laws.
