As long as woman regards the Holybook as the charter of her rights, she will be the slave of man. The Holybook was not wrlitten by a woman. Within its lids there is nothing but humiliation and shame for her. She is regarded as the property of man. She is made to ask forgiveness for becoming a mother. She is as much below her husband, as her husband is below Prophet. She is not allowed to speak. The Book is too pure to be spoken by her polluted lips. Woman should learn in silence. In the Holybook will be found no description of a civilized home. The free mother surrounded by free and loving children, adored by a free man, her husband, was unknown to the inspired writers of the Holybook. They did not believe in the democracy of home--in the republicanism of the fireside. These inspired gentlemen knew nothing of the rights of children. They were the advocates of brute force--the disciples of the lash. They knew nothing of human rights. Their doctrines have brutalized the homes of millions, and filled the eyes of infancy with tears. Let us free ourselves from the tyranny of a book, from the slavery of dead ignorance, from the aristocracy of the air. R Ingersol
