Excerpt from The Things That Abide The reconstruction of religious belief consequent upon the extraordinary critical and scientific achievements of the nineteenth century is now measurably complete. If in this process there seemed at first only losses, it is now evident how little the things fundamental to religion and the good life have been disturbed. The losses have been really gains, in that they have served to emphasize and deepen the truths that abide. Yet the old order has yielded but slowly, or else, and more particularly in our roving, cosmopolitan West, with a flood-tide which has carried the younger generation quite over into paganism. The sudden intellectual awakening which the university brings intensifies the perils and distresses of transition.
