that the United States was not Chris

This is a Republic

Mr.. Bryan sharply Called
Down fer Making PrepOs-
ferrous Religious Claims.
Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1911-10-25

First we should say that Mr. Bryan
probably did not say what he meant, or
at least did not quite realize that what
no said would attract attention outside
OF Young Mems Christian association
circles.
1t Is, OF course, preposterous TO say
that the group in any community OF
men who openly declare their allegiance
TO the Christian church" would contain
IN their group practically every man
VINO Is exerting a force in the COM
munity's progress"
And 1t is much more preposterous 70
say I'm the other group we would find
the worthless, the criminal. the degen-
crate the men who are burden to so
ciety rather than an aid"
Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1911-10-25

In this republic fortunately. Mr.. Bryan
has perfect right to believe whatever he
likes religiously.
We feel safe in saying. however. that
upon request he would modify the state
msnt which he made and which We pub
fish, and will admit that a man need
not be a professed Christian IN order 10
be a good American.
Many OF us, rejoicing in proved faith
regret that Jefferson was not a good
Christian. that Benjamin Franklin was
not Christian. that Thomas A. Edison
does not accept the Christian faith.
And many more OF as regret stin more
that among the politicians that do pro
Tess absolute faith IN the Christian dogma
many are hypOcrites.
None Of US, Il Il TO be hoDe6 sAave
Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1911-10-25

Mr. Bryan may believe that Christian
lty is the religion OF good men, that other
religions are the religions OF "the worth
less. the criminal, and the degenerate"
That belief is not unusual in deeply
religious minds-especially among those
OF simple hearts ana childish ignorance.
Every Buddhist, OF eourse-supposing
him TO have grown up in ignorance and
egotism in a small corner OF the world
believes that his religious belief contains
all that is worth while
And the dancing dervish believes that
OF his religion. And the fire worshlpper
believes IT, and the poor African ham
mering his head on the ground in front Of
a painted idol believes It also.

New York Evening Journal October 1s.
a reader sends. clipped from the Ne
braska State Journal Of October Q. a
speech made by Mr.. w. j. Bryan on
october at a Young Mems Christian
association Sunday morning breakfast.
We reproduce the particular part of
the speech, which was sent us with a
request for our opinion concerning IT,.
Mr.. Bryan said
suppose that we take a census of this
community Suppose that we put in one
group all OF the men who openly declare
their allegiance to the Christian church.
Gather all Of these in one group and put
In another all of the others. We would
tind that the first group contained the
men who are the life OF the community.
In II would be practically every man who
is eXerting force in the community's
progress In the other group we would
IND the worthless, the criminal, the
degenerate, the men who are a burden
TO society rather than an aid For the
christian group comprises the salt of
the world the salt of the country, the
salt OF the community"
