In some points, as perhaps those relating to freedom and to property, where serious errors are very easy, I have preferred to state the principles which I believe the child will approve in his mature thought, even if he does not fully apprehend them now, rather than to leave the matter clear but incomplete. Knowing as I do that there can be no abiding basis of morality altogether separate from religion, I have not sought to make a book which one who calls himself an atheist would like.
