Excerpt from The Complete Works of Brann, Vol. 2: The Iconoclast
Father of them all, in ev'ry clime adored, By saint, by savage and by sage, Jehovah, Jove, or Lord!
Cult wars with cult, and sect with sect, while all unite to damn the independent worshipper; yet every man who bows the knee or breathes a prayer to any God of whatso ever name; every Egyptian bending at Isis' fanes and every Phenician sacrificing unto Baal; every Gueber worship ing his god of fire, and every Catholic following the sacred cross; every Peruvian adoring the rising sun and every Methodist agonizing at the mourner's bench, is a member of the same great church. They may accredit their God with different attributes and worship Him in diverse ways; but their faiths, when stripped of non-essentials, are one and the same - their Deities are identical.
