The time is ripe, the author believes, for a great step forward in the evolution of religion. As the title suggests, the book is a statement of the author's conviction as to what this next step will be. He says: What I write here is in its way a confession of faith. The values and loyalties which I shall proclaim as true, redemptive and invigorating are those which my own life and critical reflection have selected. In them I see the possibility of high spiritual attainment (p. 3). The values and loyalties referred to include humanitarianism, constructive reform, social democracy, and the like. Individuals must be afforded opportunity for education, contact with beautiful things, and the stimulus of association with great causes. With such values as these in mind, 'religion' is defined as loyalty to the values of life, the spiritual as man at his best, man loving, daring, creating, fighting loyally and courageously for causes dear to him, and 'salvation' as the loyal union of a man with those values of life which have come within his ken (pp. 7-9).Religion must be purged of every trace of 'supernaturalism.' This term includes, not only the miracles and plenary inspiration in which our fathers believed, and the conceptions of an ethical God and personal immortality held by religious liberals to-day, but apparently all beliefs in an idealistic or teleological world order in which values are conserved in any other manner than through human agency. If it be asked, whether it is justifiable to retain the word 'religion' when its ancient setting has been so completely discarded, the author calls attention to the fact that we commonly speak of a man having made a religion of some interest into which he has thrown himself wholeheartedly, as when we say a socialist has made a religion of socialism, a social reformer of his work of constructive philanthropy, and an artist of his art. Such a man is filled with the spirit of consuming loyalty to what he values. ... I think that this spirit and attitude is coming to be called religious, no manner to what objects it attaches itself. . . . Morality is too cold a word in the ears of most men. Besides, moral values are only a part of the immense throng of appreciations to which man responds. There is need of a comprehensive term, able to take in all those interests and activities which give life its variety and glory. Is there a better term than religion? (p. 221).
