"It is sometimes claimed that religious intolerance is the fruit of conviction. If one be absolutely certain that one's faith is right and all others wrong, it seems criminal to permit one's neighbors's obvious error and predition. I am tempted to think, however, that religious fanaticism often is the result not of conviction but rather of doubt and insecurity."
