Tolstoi was excommunicsted from the
Russian Church. a few months ago.
which fact lends color and purpose TO the
present book The leading article defines
Religion as "the establishment by man
OF such relation to the Infinite Life
around him, as, while connecting his life
with this Inhnitude and directing his
conduct, is also In agreement with his
reason and with human knowledge" Up
on this basis OF religion founded upon
reason he stands fatty, although such po-
sition has often been found shifting sands.
Reason was termed the source Of error"

In another paper "On Religious Toler-

and the iconoclast. Then come score
of essays and letters. not one OF which
is without it's interest Nearly all OF
them are Of theological trend. The bent
OF his mind is indicated where he takes
issue with Coleridge and says: II began

truth more than anything in the world.
And until now the truth comedies for me
