Présentation de l'éditeur

He has no such purpose, even if he had the needful ability. He has made only the attempt to state what he believes to be some of the prevailing popular conceptions of religious truth, in a popular manner; to trace some of the implications and results; and to indicate what seem to him to be the lines upon which these popular beliefs are likely to grow and should be encouraged to grow. The modern instances set forth by way of illustration, unless otherwise stated, were either shared in by the author or came under his personal observation. Years ago in a small class in English composition at Harvard University, a daily theme of the present writers was undergoing dissection at the hands of the late Prof. A. S. Hill, of rhetorical memory. At last the critic tartly observed: This narrative would do very well, if it had the ring of truth. It does not make the impression that the incident ever took place.
