Effective Benevolence negative
Check Let then intolerance be checked in every shape – the expression of impatience
contempt or ill-will when you are unable to convince another
was thought however cogent & irresistible your arguments may appear to you yourself.
No man can believe just what he likes to believe at all events
at a moment's notice. He can do a great deal towards believing
in future by lending a favorable & attentive ear to the evidence
on one side, & resolutely turning away from the evidence on the other.
This is all that can be exacted from him by way of operating on
his convictions to produce the result you desire. But such a Convert
would do little honor to your apostleship & at all events take care
that no dishonest declaration is obtained by the menace or the
infliction of evil or by the withdrawal of good.
