“Law is good, proper, and essential in its place, but law can save no man, nor can law remake man and society.”
“Humanistic law aims at saving man and remaking society. For Humanism, salvation is an act of the state.”
“It must be recognized that in any culture the source of law is the god of that society.”
“We may disagree with the morality of a law, but we cannot deny the moral concern of a law.”
“Our increasingly humanistic laws, courts and legislators are giving us a new morality. They tell us, as they strike down laws resting upon biblical foundations, that morality cannot be legislated, but what they offer is not only legislated morality, but salvation by law.”
“Humanism believes in salvation by works of law. By vast appropriations of money, and dedicated labor, [it] is trying to save all nations and races, all men from all problems, in the hopes of creating paradise on earth. [It] is trying to bring peace on earth and goodwill among men by acts of state and works of law, not by Jesus Christ.”
“Our basic problem today is that we have two religions in conflict, humanism and Christianity, each with its own morality and the laws of that morality.”
