A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The purpose of this book is to show the substantial unity of human faiths. Back of all religions is religion. I ts various forms are but local, racial and temporal mouldings of the one great impulse to live nobly, to love others and to adore the highest we know. This sympathetic approach to the study of world-faiths obviates spiritual conceit and makes impossible narrowing and dishonoring views of God. Moreover, by thus setting Christianity among the great religions we are able to grasp its meaning and so at once rationalize and strengthen our loyalty to our inherited faith. In this book no effort is made to suromarize or even to name the many religions by which men have found strength to live and courage to die. Still less has there been an attempt to point out evils in practice or crudities of doctrine, so easily discovered in all faiths. Bather has the author chosen to take the most highly developed forms of religion and to take each of them in its best estate, the more clearly to show how wonderfully mankind has been led into high thinking and holy living by theO neS pirit that broods over aU.
