He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me. That ideas should freely spread from one to another over the globe, for the moral and mutual instruction of man, and improvement of his condition, seems to have been peculiarly and benevolently designed by nature, when she made them, like fire, expansible over all space, without lessening their density in any point, and like the air in which we breathe, move, and have our physical being, incapable of confinement or exclusive appropriation. ↗

I did not worry about what a man or woman personally believed, but the nation's official religion should be outwardly practiced by all its citizens. A religion was a political statement. Being a Calvinist, a papist, a Presbyterian, an Anglican labeled a person's philosophy on education, taxes, poor relief, and other secular things. The nation needed an accepted position on such concerns. Hence the fines for not outwardly conforming to the national church. ↗

地球全体をターゲットと自然に考え、欧米近代以来の思想に基づいた世界全体への関与の意志を持ち、さらにその背景には、濃淡の違いこそあれカリフォルニアン・イデオロギーが存在し、それらが選択的に組み合わされて、様々なサービスやムーブメントにおける「グローバル展開への強烈な意志」が生まれている。「グローバルウェブ」の背景を、私たちはそのように理解すべきだと思うのです。[45ページ] ↗
