Excerpt from How a Modern Atheist Found God
Religion at present is under a cloud. It seems to be the last thing that the world really thinks or cares about. It is true that we still have all the external agencies and paraphernalia of Religion; but the general scepticism and unbelief of the age is taking all the life out of them, and making them count for less and less in the great social and intellectual movements of the day. The dwindling congregations, the frantic efforts to raise money for church purposes by means of bazaars and secular entertainments, the rush to the country or the seaside at week-ends, the increasing love of pleasure all tell the same significant tale. The modem civilized world is living with scarcely any consciousness of God or things Divine.
Even in the Churches themselves Faith is weak and halting.
