WHAT IS BROTHERHOOD? Brotherhood is giving to others the righrts^irtd respect +ho+-we-want for ourselves. This definition rests squarely on the basic principles of religion and is the practical expression of religion in democratic life. Respect for all people is an essential part of our teachings from earliest childhood. As a result the concepts of equality and brotherhood are imbedded deeply in our Western civilization.
