America believes in and hallows the religions of the world. To Americans, tlie right to worship as they choose is as fundamental as the right to own their own property, or to choose their own life’s work. But to our enemies, America’s way is intolerable. The very precepts .upon which our American life is built are the things they seek to destroy.. Faith and courage . . .. initiative and honest sweat ... a passion for liberty and justice and equal rights for free men—those are the seeds from which the American way of life has Sprung.
