Excerpt from The Modern Man's Religion Through the aid of generous friends, it was possible to arrange for the addresses now included in this volume. Neither the addresses themselves nor the topics with which they deal were arranged for without careful thought and without a definite purpose in view. From both teachers and students alike had come many requests for an opportunity to hear a new and fresh statement of some of the fundamental principles of religion. In the break-up of conventional ideas which has been so marked a characteristic of the generation in which we live, many intelligent men and women have lost the clue to the meaning of religion and to its significance for human life. They have been led hither and yon by strange and often superficial teachings which frequently confused without enlightening.
