Is it possibly wrong to be written like this?
If there is to be toleration in the world, one of the things taught in schools must be the habit of weighing evidence, and the practice of not giving full consent to propositions which there is no reason to believe true. For example, the art of reading newspapers should be taught. The schoolmaster should select some incident which happened a good many years ago, and roused political passions in its day.

one of the things taught in schools must be the habit of weighing evidence, and the practice of not giving full consent to propositions which there is no reason to believe true.
In this sentence, I think the part ", and the practice of" can be taken away.
"the habit of weighing evidence and not giving full consent"
Is it possibly wrong to be written like this?
I think the two sentences covey the same meaning anyway.
Please help me!
Thanks!!
