Excerpt from Godward a Record of Religious Progress
From my childhood I was devout and pious; my faith was as resolute as that of Simon whom, for his firmness, Christ called the rock of His church. When growing up I decided to devote myself as a missionary to the cause of Christianity. But alas! on inquiring into the foundations of the fortress which I was going to defend, I found the entire structure undermined. My despair turned into sadness, my exasperation into irony; I grew an unbeliever and scorned Christianity. Yet in the depths of my soul I still remained thoroughly religious; I soon aroused myself and gathered together the fragments of the wreck I had suffered, for my heart still clung to its lost treasures.
