At this beginning of the new year it may he foolish to make
gwul ivsolutions whieh are destined to he broken before the
year is a. "Wet k" old. but it is always an opportune time to culti
vate" a more charitable and loving spirit toward our brothers;
that we will not only -respect their religious opinions, freely
giving them the same rights of conscience that we claim for
ourselves, but we will look charitably upon their peccadillos,
even upon their great wrongs. If we cannot make the Christ
ian command to '.Judge not our brother" the invariable rulejf,uit and
ofour lives, let us see to if that we judge him not iguorantly. j here, every

I (CotvrigJited bv The San dose Mercury )
Tliis iournal aiiil Kraeticdlv all liewsnat ersc of treneral cir
ctiliition often receive communications which fan -the fires of;
ieligiux hatrctl by dij-ping into history in an attempt to prove
Ttho religious antaginists of tlie milLtant writers to be too exee
rahle for expression in wtrds. Little but harm ever comes from
'printing communications of this character. That Catholics or
Protectants, m the case may be, several humlred years ago
Were Intolerant and persecuted those who differed from them in
lel'g'uuiK opinion is no evideuc' whatever that" the. Catholics
or 1'rotestants of this day are thus intolerant' and cruel. If it
W true that several hundred years' ago the Protestants, under
Cromwell and the Puritans of Massachusetts, as well as the
Catholics und'-r (jin-cn; M a ry of Enuland and Catherine of
France passetl em el i:nd priweriptive laws ami descended to
Jbarbarou cruelties against those-who differed from them in
religion, even the thought of which 'mikes us shudder,; that is
'no proper indictment against either Catholics or Protestants of
thi day. It is probably an injustice to "the masses of tiiose
lyPonp times to suppose that a majority of either Catholics
or Irotestant really approved the horrors enacted in the name
I'ot their religion 1 .. ' V $
But even if these barba t it ies were generally a pproved at
"the time of ther enactment, the world-has since learned bet
?ter. There is today perfect liberty of conscience for both
'Catholic and Protestant, for (Quaker and Iiaptist. and every
'form of religious faith, in England, France, New England, and
nearly every country in the ' world. The descendants of the
.Puritans of New England are today among the staunchest sup
'jorters and defenders of our American dostrine of perfect rclt
jgious freedom for all. ,-
, j The truth is that not so many hundred years ago it seemed
to bethe prevalent idea;aniong; both Catholics and Protestants
that if they had the powc it was their religious duty to force
'their religious ideas uikhi those who differed from them, and
' that they were justified in employing for that purpose any laws
or, penalties calculated to make their efort.tfetwal... Tli;
. even, defended taking the life of the incorrigible heretic, on
the plea that they were justified hi burning his bdy in the
'effort to save liis soul and theouls-of others of his kind from
' the fires of helL If" these facts are recalled, or referred to at
; all, let it hv', not for the purpose of keeping alive the fires' of
thatred that prompted these barbarities, but rather to stimulate
a feeling of abhorrence for religious intolerance and a lively
sense of gratitude that in our generation the most of the world
- has develoMd beyond so brutal and selfish a condition.

Vof justification in the New Testament. Nothing could W more
. opposed to the Christian spirit or doctrine. In Komaiis, Paul:
tsays; 'Who art thou that jitdgest another man's servant?;
Yea, he shall he holden up. lor (iod is able to make him stand.!
"One man estcemeth "one day. above another; another. es
teemeth every day alike. Let every man be. fully persuaded in
his own mind." '.'Let us not. therefore, judge one another any
more; but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling hkek
or an occasion to fall in his brotlier's way." And he concludes
thus. VJet us therefore follow after the things which make for
'.peace, and things wherewith one" may edify another."
Let us be thankful that the day has passed forever, .when a
man can he forced to embrace or to give up any religious faith.
And the time is rapidly passing, if it, is not already goue. when
: a man can be induced to embrace any faith of turn to religion
generally by anathema, threats or condemnation. Social ostra-
cisru of the so-ealled sinner, or pointing the accusing finger of
:- Keorn at him is not only wholly un-Christiau, but it drives him
away from church and religion instead of inducing him to
'embrace either. ''.,'.
The modern proselyter must learn to . attract men to" his
faith, by argument and persuasion not only, but by living proof
4 that it has something worth while to give to the unbelieving.
And for this purpose no argument is so unanswerable, so ir
resistible, as a helpful, sympathetic, unselfish, loving spirit
manifested by the professed followers of any form of religious
. . belief. -.Where anathema, the threats of the fires of hell and
cold logic fail, the gentle, tender word, the loviiijr deed.' the
