Excerpt from Freedom and Fellowship in Religion: A Collection of Essays and Addresses Hat religion Still occupies the thoughts of men as a great human concern need not be argued. It may be said to occupy them as it never did in times when it claimed an interest on grounds of its own, Wholly separate from other human affairs. The relig ious question now makes a part of every question. There is scarcely a concern of any moment in which religion does not hold a conspicuous rank. It is de bated in the highest places; it is the business of empires; it occupies the thoughts of princes and administrators; politicians make account of it; statesmen and dema gogues alike take bearings from it. It haunts the sci entific mind; literature cannot leave it unrecognized; philosophy finds it mingling in all its problems. The social questions that vex our age address themselves to it less directly indeed, but no less earnestly, than of Old. They who talk of the declining interest in religion can not be close Observers of the times. The forms the interest takes may have Changed, but the interest was never so vital before. The religious aspect certainly has changed. The theological epoch draws near its close. Fifteen years. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
