Religion must be used in furthering great works of justice and reform. It must be used to establish right relations between different groups of men, and thus to make a reality of brotherhood.

And it must be used to get rid of war and to establish enduring peace. Here is the supreme test of the effectiveness of religion.

They define what's sexy. And men define what's feminine. It's ridiculous.
