Sohrab > A most incomprehensible aspect(175)

"A most incomprehensible aspect of the design of the National Spiritual
Assembly was utter confidence in the justice of its plan and complete
asurance of victory. One reason for this apparent confidence was, I
suspect, the small weight which its members placed on the guarantee of
religious liberty in this country as set forth in the Bill of Rights,
together with a minimizing of the effect which this law of tolerance had
had on the consciousness of the American people" (175).
