SERIOUS DANGERS BEFORE THE
AMERICAN SHIP OF STATE.
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
One Of the greatest evils Of our
times is the growing demand for re-
ligious legislation. This demand on
the part Of religious organizations is
becoming more and more insistent,
and in some instances the civil au-
thorities are yielding to it. The
foundation pillars Of civil and re-
ligious liberty are being thus assailed
by their most relentless foes.
Religious organizations that are
clamoring for governmental recog-
milton of their peculiar dogmas, are
setting their sails to catch every wind
that blows. But they are working in
the dark, under cover, camouflaging
their real motives. They are adopting
the U-boat method in attacking the
Ship of State.
Civil liberty and religious liberty
stand or fall together. No nation can
long maintain one without the other.
They are the two compliments which
make the proposition complete. While
we are striving to make the world
safe for political democracy, We
must not forget to save the world
from religious autocracy. A religious
tyranny Of the majority, confeder.
ated for the purpose Of controlling
political institutions and depressing
the minority, is not whit better
than a religious adtocracy Of a few
which menaces the rights Of the ma
jority.
Alliances Of religion and polite.
are wrong in principle, and Away.
dangerous to the cause Of civil ant
religious liberty. The result Of sucl
a combination can only be religious
and civil despotism. A union of re
ligion with the civil government il
Of the New Testament. The medi
eval custom Of uniting the church ant
the state in so-called christian ma
tions, is not an outgrowth Of true
christian principles, but is q practic,
borrowed from pagan nations, who's,
prevailing religions were always
fastened by, or perhaps we would
better say, identified with the civi
governments.
The present tendency toward max
ing people righteous and religious
through the establishment Of re
ligious dogmas by civil authority i
q danger signal at which we shouls
take alarm. Sunday laws and uni
versal compulsory Sunday observe
ance, are an entering wedge, opening
the gates for q flood Of religious
legislation to follow in its wake. I
is high time that strong voice o,
protest be raised against ecclesiasti
cal encroachments upon our free in
situations, and the conscience Of tn
individual. A complete divorcemen
Of the church from the state is IL
harmony with Christ's teachings, ant
is the only sure basis Of domestic
peace and religious freedom. Let ri
keep the church and state eternall!
separate, that truth, justice and lib
erty may prevail, and that tranquil
ity and happiness may be promotes
and more firmly established.
