To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is the same of God as light and of God as love. Till we walk in the light, till we learn to love, God must be an unknown God. Morality and religion are thus two sides of the same truth. This is the lesson of the early East which the West, since Augustine's day at least, has largely overlooked. The result is a deep schism between morality and religion. The two have gone each on its own course, and theology has stagnated because it has become " antinomian " under one form or another. The antin...omianism of popular Protestantism is of one type, that of ceremonial sacer- dotalism of another, but both traceable to the same roots in Augustine. Let us then cut the cords which tie us to the tradi- tionalism of one Church Father. The age asks for a new theology, and we can offer it one both new and old, if they will be old Catholics of an Alexandrian, not of a Carthaginian type. To timid minds who dread the new merely because it is new, it may be some solace to know that the new is in truth the old which was from the beginning, but which sacerdotalism, East and West alike, has overlaid with base traditions and afterthoughts which are unworthy of Christ's gospel.
