What I Believe

Ray Schroeder links to this Webby award winning website promoting tolerence and provides me with an opportunity to make a connection and continue the Forsterian theme.

In his 1938 essay What I Believe, Forster suggests that “Tolerance, good temper and sympathy” are what really matter, “…and if the human race is not to collapse they must come to the front before long.”

Sixty-six years later I do not see much evidence of these qualities surfacing and goodness knows the world could certainly do with a generous helping right now.
