A Letter from Benjamin Franklin to in nephew Ezra Stiles, 9 March 1790
I believe in one God, creator of the universe. That he governs it by his Providence. That he ought to be worshiped. That the most acceptable service we render to him is doing good to his other children. That the soul of man is immortal, and will be treated with justice in another life respecting its conduct in this. These I take to be the fundamental principles of all sound religion, and I regard them as you do in whatever sect I meet with them.
Love G_D, Seek Truth, Act Justly, then can we hope to find understanding, peace and life.
