Excerpt from Christianity
The author feels that he need make no apology for writing on the subject of Christianity. It has been a timely subject for over nineteen hundred years, but was never more so than it is today. Men have scrutinized and conjectured about it and tried to obscure or even obliterate it.
Yet it stands as one of the foremost topics for investigation. Many late writers have discussed it in connection with some of the social and political movements: "Christianity and the Social Crisis;" "Christianity and Socialism;" "Christianity and Commercialism;" etc. They seem to think it is a kind of an "off ox" that must be yoked in with something else that we know better how to handle.
It is thought to be good for something, but the question is how and where to make that something available. Evidently it is considered impractical, in and of itself.
Our conceptions have been all too vague and uncertain in regard to it. The author does not hope to present anything new on the subject, but if he can awaken a new interest in a Theme and in a "Story that never grows old," he will feel fully satisfied with his efforts.
Withal it has been a very agreeable and helpful task.
