To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Dry- den, certainly not a mystic in any sense, in his poem on a Layman's Religion exclaims : Dim as the borrowed beams of moon and stars, To lonely, weary, wandering travelers, Is reason to the soul.
And Dante, crystallizing in his " Divine Comedy " all the Christian theology of the Middle Ages, makes Virgil a type of reason and Beatrice a symbol of faith. Virgil leads Dante with slow steps down circle af- ter circle of Hell, and up the Mountain of Purgation stair by stair; it is the tardy proc
...ess of the understanding on the path- way of experience. Beatrice does but shine upon him with her radiance, and he rises instantly to the very throne and the beatific vision.
But our highest authority must be reve- lation. For at least three of the great re- ligions had personal founders. Their origin was therefore subjective, or by inspiration.
Now whatever theory we may hold about inspiration, and whether or not we would deny it entirely to the non-Christian faiths, cannot affect the supremacy of any alleged revelation as an authority in everything that concerns its own religion.
