Understand this truth Dr. Norman Vincent Peale (1898-1993) and others would goon to popularize this power of positive thinking as did Hill
and his later collaborator, friend, and patron, W. Clement
Stone, in their book

All down the ages Neither here nor anywhere else in his book does
Hill engage in religion
bashing To the contrary, he has strong beliefs about God, or Infinite Intelligence, but he has little regard for dogmatics and sectarians, those who are convinced that they and they alone understand divine intentions and purposes and religious “truth.”
To Hill, nothing—no dogma, creed, or teaching—should
stand in the way of, or is necessary to, direct communication between the individual and Infinite Intelligence. It is not religion that bothers Hill.
It is
religionists.
