&rom !MMUNISM AND !'RISTIANISM

by Bi#ho$ "illiam Mont.omery Bro/n

My God, Nature, is a triune divinitymatter being the Father,force the Son, and law the Spirit.

Nature is the sum of the matter-force-law phenomena of whichthe universe is constituted. Man with his barbarism andciviliation is but one among such phenomena, on a level withthe rest, as to his beginning and ending, and as to thedependence of his life and its fullness upon conformity to the

matter-force law, without necessary or, indeed, possiblereference to any divine-human system of laws as set forth by acatholic or protestant church or by an imperialistic ordemocratic state.

!nless states and churches persuade, encourage and help manto more fully discover, more correctly interpret and moreperfectly live the matter-force law they are worthless" and indeed

worse, if in the long run and on the whole they hinder him" andundoubtedly they have done this in the case of the slave classaclass which, ever since the rise of private property in the meansof producing the necessities of life, has comprehended the vastma#ority of the human race.

$hether then man is barbarous or civilied is really and truly,wholly and entirely a %uestion of the &nowledge of and

conformity to the matter-force law, that is, of whether or not thearticles of his religious creed and political code are so manyideal embodiments and practical interpretations of facts orrealities as they are revealed by the doings of my god, Nature.

'here is no other creed, belief in the articles of which, and thereis no other code, obedience to the articles of which, will advanceman&ind, individually or collectively, so much as one step in the

long, rugged and steep way towards the goal of a perfect


17/28

civiliationa civiliation which will secure to every man,woman and child the greatest of possible opportunities to ma&ethe most of life that is within the range of possibilities.

My god, Nature (the triune divinity, matter-force-motion) thedoings of which god are so many words of the only gospel uponwhich the salvation of the world is to any degree dependent, isan impersonal, unconscious, non-moral being.

For me, this god, Nature, rises into personality, consciousnessand morality in myself, and in no other does nature do this for

me, though what is true of me is of course e%ually so of everyrepresentative of man&ind.

*esus (either as an historical or dramatic personage, and it doesnot matter which he was) said, + and my Father (god) are one,+and in saying this he gave epression in one form to the mostrevolutionary and salutary of all truths. 'he other form of thesame truth as taught by arwin and Mar is/ man has all the

potentialities of his own life within himself. 0very representativeof the human race can and should say with *esus, + and myFather, God, are one.+

Stop man1 where dost thou run23eav4n lies within thy heart,f thou see&4st God elsewhereMisled, in truth, thou art.

'his truth constitutes the most ennobling and inspiring part ofman4s &nowledge, and it was naturally discovered by him, notsupernaturally revealed to him. t is the foundation of socialismand the #usti5cation of optimism.
