A quotation from Robert Ingersoll
Is it desirable that all should be exactly alike in their religious convictions? Is any such thing possible? Do we not know that there are no two persons alike in the whole world? No two, trees, no two leaves, no two anythings that are alike? Infinite diversity is the law. Religion tries to force all minds into one mould. Knowing that all cannot believe, the church endeavors to make all say they believe. She longs for the unity of hypocrisy, and detests the splendid diversity of individuality and freedom.
Robert Green Ingersoll (1833-1899) American lawyer, agnostic, orator

Best part of the article: Senator Natale L. Urso, bill sponsor, says "'Every adherent of a religious group must expect to make certain sacrifices, to endure certain hardships, if he is to cling steadfastly to his religious precepts. But this state should not put its stamp of approval either through tax exemption or through scholarship grants upon those who violate the spirit of religious tolerance upon which this state was founded." #religiousTolerance #religiousDiversity #RI #rhodeIsland #brown

Interesting #historical discovery of the day: In 1962, #legislation was proposed in the #RI general assembly to strip the tax-exempt status of #colleges & #universities that forced students to pay for food their #religion prohibited them from eating or refused to schedule makeups for exams scheduled on holy days.
