Quote About Honesty

I don’t usually wade into religious thought but End the War on Freedom has a quote about honesty that was too good to pass up.  I checked out the original source (a 1954 newsletter) and grabbed a snippet.  Here it is (linked to the original source):

“When an honestly mistaken man sees the truth, one of two things happens: (1) he will either cease to be mistaken, or (2) he will cease to be honest. For he will either accept the truth or he will reject it. If he accepts it, he is no longer mistaken; if he rejects it, he is no longer honest. It is as simple as that.”

The entirety is more religious than I roll…but the point about honesty and truth is spot on and applies in not only religion but in thoughts of any type.
