Mrs. Morrison said in cvplainirg her
r. n<IU't that “God had comma- d«*d hi r
to leave her husband. To live with him
any longer would lie a sin.” Robert
Laughlin, of Klamath Falls, who cut

fit of holine-s, n's» »nt I that he hud
keen commanded to do it l>y the Al­
mighty. It would lx* a queer deity
who would command |«->.|

so silly.
H >w *ha!l we account for
these monstrous d« <«ls done under the
name of religion? Perhaps we cannot
explain them completely, but it is hard­
ly doubtf :l that the old fash on« . con­
cept of the deity is more or 1« « to
blame.
Following the accounts in the
primitive books of the Bible the Al­
mighty is popularly present«-«! as an
irrational being, vengeful fu--donate,
tickle ail bloodthirsty.

For that state of min«l which our i
’em friends call holiness the true name
is fanatical superstition. It is not re­
ligion, nor anything like religion, an«i
the being whom it calls God is nothing
l>etter than a hideous caricature of th«-
Almighty as he really exists.
The
deity
who loves nghteousn« -a and
mercy would not countenance such folly
as Mrs. M-rrison committed. Genu.i <•
religion temls to «trengthen the ties
between man and wife, not t«» I • •« *

them. In the lest analysis there *•
very little difference between true re­
