The greatest trouble about religion
Is, it does not get into business as it
should. 1t doesn't successfully re-
sist the spirit Of money-making, says
Ohio State Journal. When Socrates
was condemned for leading the youth
astray, it was upon the proposition
that the soul and materialism were in
fatal conflict. In his speech at his
trial he is thus quoted by Plato: You,
my friend-a citizen of the great and
mighty and wise city Of Athens-are
you not ashamed of heaping up the
greatest amount of money and honor
and reputation, and caring so little
about wisdom and truth and the great
est improvement of the soul which you
never regard or heed at all?" Never
did the issue come home to Christian
ity so forcefully as dear old Socra-
ties put it. And never was there IN is
sue so vital as the m today.
