becoming creative" he said. 1--WE have
been in a hot-house condition for twenty
years. We have analyZed the Bible and
dogmatized the Bible, and have had
heresy trials that were more dangerous
than Chicago fires, and we have asked
questions and answered them. We have
passed from the old thought that the
world was created in six days to the new
thought that God is making a new world
every moment. At length we understand
that God is not far off, that He is not to
interrupt our laws with miracles, but
that He is close to man and is living
with him all the time. All this is the
result of science. We are at the begin
ming of one of the greatest church-going
epochs in all history"
