| Ethical Culture | 
We assert the independence of morality. We do not rest on dogma, because there is something in man closer and more constitutional to him than dogma: we do not rest on history, because we believe that within man lie the springs of history, and that history's grandest movements started from no inspiration that we cannot draw on equally well today. The modern world talks of progress; we believe in moral progress, that the ideas of righteousness are not stationary, but capable of endless expansion http://roots.ethicalmanifold.net/archives/000033.html
