TRUE LIBERALISM

'...liberalism is not a partisan claim for the universal authority of a particular morality, but the search for terms of coexistence between different moralities. In this alternative view, liberalism has to do with handling the conflicts of cultures that will always be different, not founding a universal civilization.' 
John Gray in Adam Phillips, On Balance, p.56.

LIBERAL HUMANISM

'Liberal humanism is itself very obviously a religion - a shoddy replica of Christian faith markedly more irrational than the original article and in recent times more harmful.'
John Gray in Julian Hardyman, Idols, p.113.
