" No, " he said, " we adore the Buddha of empty space. " "Why, " we in- quired, " should you pay your homage to him ? He is not in the position of emperor or father to you. Why do you not worship God, who is both your emperor and your father?" He asked, in reply, for informa- tion as to how God should be adored. He was told, by feeling reverence for Him and addressing Him in prayer. He then remarked that the sect to which he belonged had two leaders who were put to death by crucifixion. This, h...e said, was a point of resemblance between their religion and our own. He was informed that the death of Jesus differed from that of others who had been crucified, in the circumstance that it was borne voluntarily for the salvation of others. It is the habit of the Chinese of all religions to seek out resemblances between their system and that of others, and when they have discovered such resemblances, they proceed to assert that the principles of the two systems are identical. In the halls used for worship by this sect there is a tablet set up, dedicated to heaven, earth, prince, parent, and teacher.
