Excerpt from Protestant Modernism or Religious Thinking for Thinking Men
Ways of thinking have a history. The paternal grandparents of the author of this book were tried for heresy, for not believing in foreordination to eternal torments, and were expelled from the Baptist church in Williamstown, Massachusetts, known as "the stone church." As a result the author"s father was estranged from all churches, but was accustomed to discussions of theology as his daily intellectual exercise. The discussions led to wide reading and much thinking, to a devout spirit and an untrammelled mind. The author"s mother early led him to the Methodist church, and he was reared in its theological atmosphere.
