Each tries, after his own fashion, to give a better answer than the Socialists to the critical problems of to-day. We ought so far to congratulate both them and ourselves on the direction of their energies. Nay, can we not even co-operate, and put these hopeless controversies aside .' Why not agree to differ about the questions which no one denies to be all but insoluble, and become allies in promoting morality ? Enormous social forces find their natural channel through the Churches ; and if th...e beliefs inculcated by the Church were not, as believers assert, the ultimate cause of progress, it is at least clear that they were not incompatible with progress. The Church, we all now admit, whether by reason of or in spite of its dogmatic creed, was for ages one great organ of civilisation, and still exercises an incalculable in- fluence. Why, then, should we, who cannot believe in the dogmas, yet fall into line with believers for practical purposes ? Churches insist verbally upon the importance of their dogma: they are bound to do so by their logical position ; but, in reality, for them, as for us, the dogma has become in many ways a mere excrescence — a survival of barren 248 THE AIMS OF ETHICAL SOCIETIES formulae which do httle harm to anybody.
