"Thy kingdom come... on earth" is what we are saying. And if that were 
suddenly to happen, what then? What would stand and what would fall? Who 
would be welcomed in and who would be thrown the Hell out? Which if any 
of our most precious visions of what God is and of what human beings are 
would prove to be more or less on the mark and which would turn out to 
be phony as a three-dollar bill? Boldness indeed. To speak those words 
is to invite the tiger out of the cage, to unleash a power that makes 
atomic power look like a warm breeze.
