Description:Excerpt from Liberal Religious Thought at the Beginning of the Twentieth Century, Vol. 9 Such fellowship will, in fact, remain thus contracted until it is realized that the permanent truths of spiritual religion, which Liberals of all churches affirm, are of infinitely more importance than the historical forms about which men may learn to differ without suspicion or mistrust. The old confessional restrictions will then fall away of themselves. An increasing number in many countries are preparing to adopt this position. When this battle is over, liberal religious thought will take its honoured and acknowledged place in the world, and the support of numbers will not be wanting. Such a triumph is, however, a long way off. 'Clericalism' is a potent force in the civilized world at the opening of the twentieth century, and 'Liberalism' occupies a small place - a mere speck on the horizon - compared with the organized hosts of 'Orthodoxy.' The justification and the need of an organization of Liberal religious thinkers and workers are self-evident. Freedom of thought can only be attained through conflict; and it can only be enjoyed by unceasing vigilance on the part of those who have reached it by personal effort, or inherited it from the brave and strenuous souls who lived in days gone by. But the small and scattered forces of Liberalism in religion have good reason for encouragement and hope.
