BOOK EXCERPT:
Excerpt from Religion: A Comparative Study The author has a definite purpose in offering this book to the public. He is aware that there are many valuable works on the subject of Comparative Religion. He regards some of them as too voluminous and technical for the average reader who is seeking an intelligent understanding of the Great Religions of the world. Others show unmistakable signs of having been "made in Germany" and as being a part of the destructive higher criticism that has done harm to the cause of Christianity. Some of these volumes are admirable in every way, but are so condensed they do not give a general survey of the field. The present work will doubtless prove equally unsatisfactory to many readers, but if others get as much pleasure and profit from its perusal, as the author has in its preparation, he will be well paid. We have treated the subject under three general heads: I. The Science of Comparative Religion. II. The History of Religions. III. The Comparison of Religions. The religious idea is one and innate, but as this idea is expressed by different peoples it is colored by the medium through which it passes.
