To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Now, if one of these long-suffering clergy men should happen in to-night and say, " My dear sir, if you take away supernatural- ism you will destroy religion, " I should reply, 160 THE SEARCH FOR SATISFACTION u I have not had the honor of taking away any of it, but it is nevertheless disappearing like frost in a July sun, and religion is not being destroyed.
"Supernaturalism is nothing but the gar ments in which the essential truths of religion have been clothed and disguised. When these garmen...ts become too old-fashioned to be longer tolerated, some one will take them off, one by one, and you must not ask what they will be replaced with. It may not be necessary to replace them at all. Truth has a robust constitution, and can go about naked without any danger of catching cold.
" A good many of these garments have already been stripped off, and it would be wearisome to repeat the names of all those intrepid fellows who have done the stripping; but you will admit that the essentials of relig ion have not suffered by the process.
