Brotherhood

Brotherhood is common sense saying ``Get rid of your prejudices in order to live peacefully with yourself and your neighbors.''
Brotherhood is good sportsmanship saying: ``Do not make another person or another group the scapegoat for your own shortcomings and frustrations.''
Brotherhood is education saying: ``Beyond the development of skills and the acquiring of knowledge, we must learn how to live together.''
Brotherhood is science saying: ``Humanity is one; there is no such thing as a superior or an inferior race.''
Brotherhood is American democracy saying: ``We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed with certain inalienable right.''
I.E. Metcalf; World Call

Our doctrine of equality and liberty and humanity comes from our belief in the brotherhood of man and the fatherhood of God.
Calvin Coolidge

That period of the year marking the birth of George Washington is set annually aside by the National Conference of Christians and Jews as Brotherhood Week. It is a time for reflection and resolution by all who believe with Thomas Carlyle that a mystic bond of brotherhood makes all men one. Accepting this philosophy in good faith, let us, however, look realistically to the precept of Dostoevsky: ``Until you have become really, in actual fact, a brother to everyone, brotherhood will not come to pass.''
