Every morning when you picked up your newspaper you would read of some new scheme for saving
the world...soon all the zealots, all e-Outers, all the transcendentalists of Boston gathered
at the Chardon Street Chapel and harangued each other for three mortal days. They talked on
nonresistance and the Sabbath reform, of the Church and the Ministry, and they arrived at no
conclusions. "It was the most singular collection of strange specimens of humanity that was ever
assembled," wrote Edmund Quincy, and Emerson was even more specific: "Madmen, madwomen,
men with beards, Dunkers, Muggletonians, Come-Outers, Groaners, Agrarians, Seventh-day
Baptists, Quakers, Abolitionists, Calvinists, Unitarians, and Philosophers, all came essively to
the top and seized their moment, if not their hour, wherein to chide, or pray, or preach or
protest....There was some-thing artificial about the Chardon Street debates, there was a hothouse
atmosphere in the chapel. There was too much suffering fools gladly, there was too much talk, too
much display of learning and of wit, and there was, for all the talk of tolerance, an unchristian
spirit.
– Henry mager, Theodore Parker
So Fervently Do We Believe

School principal Debbie Reeves of the upscale Barnwell Elementary School in an Atlanta suburb was quoted
