QUOTE OF THE DAY:

“To convert one’s adult neighbour and one’s adolescent neighbour (just free from school) is the practical thing. . . . If you make the adults of today Christian, the children of tomorrow will receive a Christian education. What a society has, that, be sure, and nothing else, it will hand on to its young.”

Preface to B. G. Sandhurst’s How Heathen is Britain? (Collins Publishers, 1946) that was reprinted in God in the Dock under the title of “On the Transmission of Christianity”
