The Christian Program
Excerpt from The Christian Program
The answer to the first question he gives in his creed. This may be anything, the baldest materialism, the most seductive pantheism, or the most reverent Chris tian Theism. It will yet be his creed because it answers the first question. It might seem consistent to say that the answer to the second question is his system of ethics. But for the purpose of life, systems of ethics are too abstract, too unreal, too extended, and therefore they find their place in dry volumes on library Shelves and not in human lives. It will be more cor rect to say that he answers the second question in his program of life.
