Progress is born of doubt and inquiry. The Church never doubts, never inquires. To doubt is heresy, to inquire is to admit that you do not know—the Church does neither.

religious rites and rituals.

The whole purpose of religion is to facilitate love and compassion, patience, tolerance, humility, and forgiveness.
