Excerpt from Religion and Human InterestsPrimarily, religion has to do with man's duty towards his Creator. It prescribes the worship which is due to the Creator from the creature. How ever, this is not religion's only function. It sheds its benign in¿uence on every department of human life. It is the keystone in the arch of human con duct, it keeps all other duties in their place, while explaining and enforcing them. I have attempted to bring out this function of religion in the follow ing pages. The war has compelled many thought ful men to re-examine their scale of values, if this little book affords any help in the task, it will have fulfilled its writer's desires.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
