Excerpt from The Grange: A Study in the Science of Society, Practically Illustrated by Events in Current History
That society exists to a great extent within the province of personality and volition - the province within which praise or blame are appropriate and necessary - no one will deny. But that the same society, at the same time lies largely within the realm of uniform law, where praise or blame of any human act or motive is insane, is indubitably true. This is evident from the fact that certain states of society and courses of social progress have appeared in history, which man's intelligent design was powerless to change, such as the corruption of the Papal Church and the decline of the Roman Empire.
