Excerpt from The Place of Christianity Among the Religions of the World The fourth chapter was prepared at the invitation of the Com mittee of the International Council of Unitarian and other Liberal Religious Thinkers, which held its second meeting at Amsterdam in September, 1903. A few passages in the section on Hindu thought have been expanded, in order to bring out more clearly the contrasts between the fundamental conceptions of religious experience in the Indian and the Hebrew developments. In tracing the barest outlines of the succession of faiths, and endeavouring to estimate their relative spiritual significance, it is inevitable that those who speak from the outside should lay a different emphasis on the same facts compared to those who speak from within. Just as the art, the poetry, the ethical types, of the higher races vary, so also must the specific expressions of faith. The time has not yet come when the East and the West can see eye to eye. But we are daily learning new lessons of sympathy and reverence. To help, however imperfectly, to enforce this teaching, is the purport of the following pages.
