This super basic concept is preached in all religions. God is TRUTH and LIGHT. Only through your conscience do you connect to him.

Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burnt, tortured, fined and imprisoned; yet we have not advanced one inch towards uniformity.
