"The Proportions of Truth" by Edward Hoare is a discussion from the 1800s that explores the idea of balance and harmony within religious beliefs, and how messing with this balance can lead to false ideas; the author uses examples from art, nature, and music to show how important proportions are, not only in religion but everywhere; the work pictures Christian faith as truths that must be understood as they relate to each other to understand God's message accurately; the author touches on the importance of balancing different qualities of God, ritual in worship and the value of sacraments; it emphasizes that seeing only part of the truth can weaken the complete message; it stands up for an all-around method that puts together different sides of Christian teachings for a stronger, more harmonious faith among believers.
