" Jesus founded the absolute religion, excluding nothing, determining nothing, save its essence. The foundation of the true religion is indeed his work. After him there is nothing more but to develop and fructify."

The only attempt that has ever been made to find a vulnerable point in the doctrines of Jesus has been in the form of a declaration that the ethics of the Sermon on the Mount " are too good for this world." It may be true that some of his precepts are impracticable in the present state of civilization. It may be that the meek shall not inherit the earth for many long years to come. But the process of the evolution of humanity towards a higher civilization has not yet ceased ; and we may rest assured that the time is approaching when there will be universal " peace on earth and good-will to all mankind." The religion of Jesus is for all time to come. It is the religion of the poor and the lowly, and it is adapted to the highest civilization conceivable by man. It is the final religion of humanity ; and though the earth in the fullness of time may pass away, his words shall not pass away. This is why I have remarked that the evolution of religion ceased when Jesus promulgated his doctrines. It had attained perfection ; and that is all that evolution can do. It is true that his teachings have been misunderstood and perverted, and for many long years the evolution of religion has progressed backward. A vast system of theology has been erected, ostensibly upon the foundation which he laid, — a theology much of which bears no resemblance to true Christianity. But this was because man was, as he still is, imperfect. As civilization progresses, however, man will be released from the thraldom of creed and dogma, and revert to the pure and simple code of the man of Nazareth. " For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid." " After him there is nothing more but to develop and fructify."
