THE MINISTRY OF RELIGION

wider vision that the whole fabric OF
morality rests on a social foundation
The idea that rightness or wrongness
virtue or sin, for you and me is or can
be determined by any external authority
called God is nonsense. There never was
in the history of the world a moral law
put in written or spoken words which
came from the mind of an external
transcendent God Every such alleged law
was the natural product of social ex-
perience or social necessity. 1t is the so
cial nature of man. the fact of our vital
and intimate social relationship, that gives
us all the morality we have Once let
humanity shake off the nightmare of its
authoritative and traditional religious
teaching, whose precepts have depended
upon ignorance or fear for their power
over the human mind and the inspira-
tons of love and justice and brother
hood will give force and effect TO the nat
ural law of moral action.
In word, the world is learning
slowly, ii may be. but surely-to look
for its God, that is to say. for its divine
sanction. for its inspiration to worship,
for its moral authority and religious full
fiIlment. in new direction Time was
when all the world looked for God solely
in the mysterious. the unknown. Many
do still. Time was when mankind thought
il was finding God in exhibitions of pow
er-the fearful might of natures forces
and the ruthless tyranny of human des-
pOtism. And because it did that it
clothed human rulers-kings czars, empe-
rors, popes-with a divine sanction regard
less of what the immortality or cruelty of
these rulers might be.
1.-The remains of that superstition are
with us still. The heartless ear of Rus
STA is the head of the Russian church
The king of England. with his seamy
moral record, is head of the English
church. And libertines who ruled as
popes at Rome were called the Wears of
Christ and have been canonized as saints
and worshpped. That was the legacy of
Ignorant, cropping saVagery. But we are
not looking any more in that direction for
God. We are not finding God and shall
not find him in the violent manifestations
OF nature nor in exhibitions of brute
force anywhere. We are going to find
God, If at all. in those ideals of right
eousness and fraternity which all of us
together can translate into joyous. hope
breeding. heaTteniug reality. We are go
ing 10 find God in that process of social
transformation and endeavoT, and only
in that process"

The Ministry Of Religion was the
subject of a sermon by William Thurston
Brown in Unitarian hall, Sunday. THE
ministry of religion today and tomorrow
has got to be cooperative collective, So
cial in purpose and method said Mr.
Brown. Whatever division of labor it
may require. religion is not seen and
will not be, unless a purpose, a cause a
goal is seen which is capable of compelI-
ing the interest and enthusiasm of all
classes and conditions and in the serv-
ice OF which any sacrifice will seem
small. The minister is no longer primari-
~ the teacher of the community as he
once was. He cannot be the vicar of
Christ as he has been slpnosed to be
He does not hold the keys of the kingdom
OF heaven and never did. 1t is not his
business and ought not to be to be
father to his people, old or young. That
relationship arose before the dav of
democracy, belongs to a monarchial age.

minister of religion today must be a
brother, a friend. a comrade. And the

the discovery has not already been made
that there is no such thing as death. that

other notions of the hereafter which we
have inherited, are obsolete notions We
are going to make the discovery that IL
those who leave US are living, they are
facing the same moral problems they
faced here, the same we are facing. No
God is ever going to solve any single
problem for us either in this world or in
any other. We ourselves have got to solve
all these problems, have got to be Cod
