Great Classical Liberal Knows The Value And Blessing Of Liberty!

On April 23, 1912 at the Bethel Literary Society, held at the Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church, M Street, NW, Washington, D.C. Abdu'l-Baha spoke of the potentials of men and women unencumbered by oppression: "Through intellectual and intelligent inquiry science is the discoverer of all things. It unites present and past, reveals the history of bygone nations and events, and confers upon man today the essence of all human knowledge and attainment throughout the ages. By intellectual processes and logical deductions of reason this superpower in man can penetrate the mysteries of the future and anticipate its happenings."
 (Abdu'l-Baha, The Promulgation of Universal Peace, p. 49)

" . . . in this human world there is no greater blessing than liberty. You do not know. I, who for forty years have been a prisoner, do know. I do know the value and blessing of liberty. For you have been and are now living in freedom, and you have no fear of anybody. Is there a greater blessing than this? Freedom! Liberty! Security! These are the great bestowals of God.
 (Abdu'l-Baha, The Promulgation of Universal Peace, p. 52)
