The second great idea is the “equality of man,” an equality not of conditions but of rights. Equality before God’s law and love, before human law and institutions. From this equality of man comes the great doctrine of freedom for all. Slavery cannot exist in a final civilization, because this final civilization is built up in part on the idea of equality of man. From this equality of man comes that other great social doctrine of the brotherhood of man. Any civilization which ignores the equality of man, and these great included ideas, freedom and brotherhood of man, cannot, in the very nature of things, be the higher and the final civilization. All former civilizations failed to recognize this great fact, and this is one of the reasons why they became effete and passed away. I believe God has chosen this land, and has raised up this Association for the purpose of working out this problem. The physical view is a low one, and really belongs to the lower civilization. In comparison with the intellectual, and moral, and spiritual, the physical sinks into insignificance. The third great idea of the permanent civilization is “the true idea of woman.” In the earlier civilizations woman was held as inferior to man, because perhaps she could not endure the fatigues of the chase or engage in wars, and such brutalizing pursuits. The very signs of her superiority were read as evidences of her inferiority. In some her position was hardly anything but that of a slave or a toy. In that civilization which had the highest culture of any of the old civilizations, an educated woman was classed in the common thought of the people as an impure woman. Thank God such a civilization as that was not the final one. In the final civilization woman has her place alongside of man—co-equal and co-ordinate.
