"The elements of religious truth are common to the human race"

“IT is the traditional teaching of natural theology that the elements of religious truth are common to the human race and accessible to every rational creature—that the divine Being is the transcendent end towards which all the different ways of life converge and the divine law the universal norm by which all different patterns of human behavior can be coordinated.”

~Christopher Dawson: Gifford Lectures, 1947; Religion and Culture.
