A NEW
TIIK philosophers of today sire saying that (ho world
ii'i'(ls a now religion. The deluge of blood that is
drowning the millions of ftnropo. while the ir rulers saneti
moniously appeal) to the Vlinighty as their partner in
crime, calls to mind the crimson-stained pages of hi.storv,
with hideous and horrible stories of tortures and slaughter
in the name of (lod, the church and religion.
We read of the poixoeution of the Christians in the time
of Nero and .Julian the Apostate, with feelings of deepest
hatred i'or the pagans. Hut the perusal of the pages of a
later period prove to the unwilling mind that the Chris
tian sects in their wavs against each other murdered their
tens of thousands where the unchristian Uoinans slew
their thousands.
We close our eyes in horror at the picture of the hu
man torches burning upon the cross to light the games in
Cjicsar's garden. I Jut for met hods of torture the refined
cruelties of that age were improved a hundred fold by the
ingenuity that distinguished the Spanish iniiiisition and
the peisecution for witchcraft in (lermany, England and
the New Kngland states in colonial days.
When we reflect that our religion has been in the
keeping of those who, as late as the eighteenth century,
burned women and children as witches and justified their
acts bv the Word of Cod, little wonder it is that their de
scendanls and subjects find honor and glory in an orgy
of death and destruction.
Apologists will fell us flint il is not the presenf-dny
religion thnt is nt fault, but the failure to follow if. A re
ligion must be judged ns other huninn institutions bv its
effect upon the people who embrace if. and adopt il.
A religion, however pure .some of ils precepts, or beau
1 i Pill some of ifs ideals, that does not elevate and ennoble
its ndherents, is wanting in results.
For centuries the world was ruled by tyrants who
carried the axe. or fagot in one hand and the divine law
in the other, and woe lo him who to them said nay. IJruno,
.Jean of A re and Huss are hut shining examples of millions
who paid with their lives tribute fo their conscience, while
the exemplars and precursors of religion claimed henv
en'.s reward for their extermination of Coil's enemies.
The students of history are forcibly impressed with
Ihe ovr-porvading evidence flint the cruelties of religion
hnvo ever found their strength in the wealthy and luxury
loving elapses. They never had their source in mud-wattles
or cabins of the poor. Often file voluptuous fell prey
fo the religious persecutions of his own class as a means of
disposing of a rival, but the victims o'f the self-appointed
agents of divine law were almost wholly among the de
fenseless, the poor or their infellectu.'il defenders, who pre
ferred denfh to life amid such surroundings.
The reason is not beyond comprehension. All relig
ions, pagan, Christian or heathen, judged bv the highest
moral standards of any age, that can claim the respect
of reason, had for their basis the hnrmony of mankind. At
the basis of each of their, are the economic questions that
have beset mankind.
"The love of money is the root of all evil" i not nu idle
aphorism. Paul understood the problems of rich and poor
in his day, as well as we in ur.s. lie knew, as we know,
that the love of money not only corrupts the soul of the
lover, but it guides the hand that oppresses the lowly, robs
the poor and starves ihe children. Thus spoke Zoroaster
and Confucius. Christ attacked the money-lovers of His
day in the temple, and lie who was looked upon ns a harm
less doctrinaire up to thnt tune soon Ineod the nioh, urged
on, doubtless, bv the unseen hnud of Hie classes, and for
his temerity in attacking the
leges of (hose dn.Vs who had usurped (lod s house as tin
place fo ply their trade, lie soon paid lorloit of His life on
the cross on Calvary.
Socrates drank the fatal hemlock under sentence of
dentil because of impious altitude towards some of the
many gods thnt reigned nt Athens. Ibif he, too, in his
teachings liad dared attack the sacred rights of property.
Our record of those times, as is tho history of all times, is
(lit view of the tyrant, the usurper, mid uoor of the op
pressed, and doubtless if we knew the whole story of the
persecution of the grent philosopher we would lonrn that
the accusation of profanity against him, like thnt against
iJ'esus. was simply a menus of compelling an ignorant an
oppressed popiunct to slay
arouse the people to seine ol their own wrongs and a cor.
sciousness of their own power. i

masses who wore the victims of control by custom and
superstition. It was easier to control by threatening the
displeasure of Cod than by killing, thojigh killing has al
ways been a favored method of inspiring respect for the
displeasure. And the earth has no darker record than
when the diViue law and the civil law was dispensed by the
same aitthoritv.
4
With such heredity the Christian religion may well be
pardoned for the holocaust of the greatest Christian peo
ples. Perhaps the teachings of Christ have not been fairly
tried, and tljey never will be until they are divorced from
greed and selfishness, until they are written in the laws
of the land.
The experiment of one law for religious life and an
other for civil life should have its memorial built of the
millions of skulls thai could be collected from the victims
of that svstcut thnt have bathed a continent in their blood.
Men love'to talk of n religion of love. How can it ovist
in a laud where the government is one of hate and re
venge How can men be just in an atmosphere of injus
tice How can men who are fiercely contending and
striving and battling and envying and hating six days in
the week, have anv love remaining for the seventh day.'
The sham, the hypocrisy of it !
If we are to have a new religion it must be digested
of that which makes men irreligious of that which makes
men oppress their lollow-nieu- -that gives men any power
over other men other than the power that springs from
goodness and moral wisdom.
And where it was written by some monk who in the
enrly da.vs, to servo bis patrons all too well, those werds:
"lieiider therefore unto Caesar the things which are
Caesar's, and unto Cod the thii;gs that are Cods," we must
write, "render unto Cod in all things."
