History is stained with enormous blotches of blood, spilled from the bodies of victims, who dared step forward and upward to a higher grade of religious worship.

History also shows that each succeeding force of persecutors, who attempted to withhold man’s right to choose a GOD that was most suitable to his own manner of existence, was subsequently mistreated in exact proportions that he or they had previously thrust upon others. FOR:

As you give, so you receive.

History also shows that those religious sects who had previously been persecuted and then became powerful in numbers, also became pitiless persecutors of the more advanced believers in GOD, who came afterward.

It has been shown that a bit of power usually turns men into ferocious beasts with all kindness toward human beings with different opinions, shorn from their weak minds.

The brute is always the coward who fears to attack a more powerful body than himself.

The courageous man will always defend his right to freedom of worship in his own way, in spite of all brutal antagonists, no matter how powerful they may appear to be.

Persecution is the debasing act of an ignorant individual or organization who assumes the power to injure, oppress, afflict or grieve others who refuse to bow to their mannerisms of worship.

It is an act of those who know that they are wrong and who attempt to hinder those who want to do what is right.

One who does what is right does not have to fear GOD nor man.

One who does wrong is in constant fear of the punishment that eventually is meted out through GOD'S unchangeable law of MANEUVERABILITY, which no inhuman brute has the power to escape.

Alfred Lawson said that he had never known of a case where anyone had escaped the punishment deserved from his wrong actions.

Therefore, if a human being will take time to think carefully before all acts and do no act that the conscience will not sanction, he or she will not have to worry about any future punishment whatsoever.

Anyone can prove Lawson's Law of MANEUVERABILITY to be positively and irrevocably right whenever any mishap befalls one, by looking backward, for then one will realize that if he, himself, had not created a wrong act in the first place, the mishap could not have happened.

If GOD took a million years, Earth Time, to develop a physical man to carry forward spiritual lessons to keep pace with the mental development and enlarged consciousness of the human race, HE is not going to permit degraded wrong actions to stop the forward movement of right actions under any circumstances.

And, furthermore, HIS Law of Maneuverability makes punishment of those who attempt to stop its progress doubly severe for such interference in connection with HIS spiritual work.

Those who have been given greater powers in management, because their souls used progressive methods while encased in previous physical bodies, who now use those powers to deny equal rights to upgraded mortals, and who stoop to degraded methods of persecution, by ordering their weak followers to harm the forerunners of LAWSONIAN worshippers of GOD, will be punished in quantity equal for every wrong deed each and all of the mental weaklings did by following the orders of those in charge of such wrong actions.

The Leaders who order weak people to take wrong actions, must pay the full penalty for all of such actions taken by those who obeyed their degraded orders.

PERSECUTION brings to the surface all of the meanest of man's actions, such as false accusations, lie-carrying, destroying property, vicious attacks of one's good character, thieving, conspiracy and murder.

Therefore GOD'S unchangeable Law of MANEUVERABILITY punishes not only each individual action for wrong doing, but exacts punishment of each soul for the combined results of such wrong action as he or she took any part in.

Therefore, Alfred Lawson, as First Knowlegian, will not permit any members pro tem of the LAWSONIAN RELIGION, to in any manner put into practice the persecution of others of different religious beliefs, no matter what others have done to hinder their own advancement.

Wrongs committed by others are no excuse for LAWSONOMY Scholars to do wrong themselves.
