Asiatjc Creeds.

Few people realize the growth of
Asiatic cults and religions in America
1t is stated on apparently good au-
thority that this country now holds
$4,000 sun worshipers, and an equal
number of Buddhists.
Probably ten times as many per-
sons have covered the Oriental basis
OF their new creed with a veneer OF
western Christianity. The number of
dabblers in the mystic" cults of India
now among us cannot be guessed.
There is no cause for alarm al this
growth of Orientalism. Neither is II
thing to be proud of Mysticism. SEN
sualism, lethargy-these in varying
proportions are woven in the texture
of every Asiatic creed that is seeking
converts here. These creeds do not
and cannot fit the busy life Of our land
today, and for that very reason they
will make no dangerous progress in
this land
The growth of pagan Orientalsm
in America is remarkable, but, after
ALL 1t touches only the fringe of our
population.
