此论实甚切当。
…All understanding of history depends on ones understanding the forces that make it, of which religious forces are the most active and the most definite. (P. 279)
所有对于历史的理解依托于对于推动历史的诸力量的了解，这其中最能动的、最确定的便是宗教的力量。（279页）
I think that faith implies sincerity, that it is a gift that does not dwell in dishonest minds. To be sincere a man must battle with the causes of error that beset every mind. He must pour constant streams of electric light into the deep recesses where prejudice dwells, and passion, hasty judgments, and wilful blindness deem themselves unseen. He must continually grub up the stumps planted by all manners of unrevised influence. (p. 279—280)
我认为信仰就意味着诚实。这种天赋的特性不会寓居不诚实的心灵之中。一个诚实的人必须与困扰心灵的错误的根源作斗争。他必须不断将电光照射进偏见藏匿的幽深之处。激情、仓促的判断和固执的视而不见必将蒙蔽一切。他必须不断地根除那些由各种各样未经周密的思考的思想影响造成的残余。（279—280页）
读此节可想见其人。
