Everywhere we see this assertion of freedom, this freedom of the

soul. It is reflected in every religion in the shape of God or gods;

but it is all external yet-for those who only see the gods outside.

Man decided that he was nothing. He was afraid that he could never be

free; so he went to seek for someone outside of nature who was free.

Then he thought that there were many and many such free beings, and

gradually he merged them all into one God of gods and Lord of lords.

Even that did not satisfy him.
