Excerpt from Phases of Religion in America: A Course of Lectures
My purpose has not been to set forth the peculiarities of the sects but to state the main principles of religious thought and feeling in America. This has not obliged me to introduce all denominations, but only those that are typical, and has left me free to deal with those phases of the religious problem which have not institutionalized.
I have retained the license of popular speech granted a lecturer, but I am not aware of such indulgence in any case to the point of injustice. A candid and rem'emberable statement of the facts has been my constant aim. I do not conceal my purposes, which are made clear in the last four chapters, to plead that truth oi religion which overarches all sects and that spiritual experience which underlies them all.
