Quote by Thomas Jefferson
Compulsion in religion is distinguished peculiarly from compulsion in every other thing. I may grow rich by art I am compelled to follow, I may recover health by medicines I am compelled to take against my own judgment, but I cannot be saved by a worship I disbelieve
Summary
This quote emphasizes the distinction between compulsion in matters of religion and compulsion in other aspects of life. While one may be compelled to engage in certain actions for wealth or health, it argues that true salvation cannot be achieved through worship if there is disbelief. It highlights the importance of genuine faith and personal conviction in religious practices.
