Spiritualism has no creed, no ritual, and no dogmatic belief. It is ever open to new thought, new horizons, new alignment with growing knowledge in science, searching to eliminate old myths and superstitions. Spiritualism is the democracy of religions, free from the tyranny of eternal hierarchy.
It places Personal Responsibility squarely on the individual. It has no "last breath" redemption plan. It agrees entirely with a "Brotherhood of Man" principle. Its seven principles are the most reasonable ever drawn for consideration. It unites the thoughts of the "living dead" with those still in the body. It coordinates both worlds into one progressive unit. It brings hope and purpose to a confused, rebellious world. To every man a clear-cut well defined objective beyond physical existence.
