Synopsis
Excerpt from Let Us Pray Prayer is about the last subject one would willingly treat with rude or reckless freedom; for it reaches into the realm of sacred mysteries, and concerns the most intimate relations between man and his Maker. If such a subject needs to be cleared of hurtful misconceptions, the process must be something like the surgery which ventures to cut away false growths near to the heart. Yet, for the hearts own sake, the knife cannot always be spared. We have all become suspicious that our traditional ways of thinking about religious matters, as about most other human affairs, need to be overhauled or re-examined, and cleared of unreal and irrational elements. We owe no more respect to religious nonsense than to any other. Yet in no department of thought does error grow so rankly. The more fertile the soil, the more abundant the product, whether of wholesome plants or of useless and poisonous weeds. Precisely because the spiritual part of our nature is like a rich tropical garden, it is liable to be infested and choked with all sorts of tare and tangle. The very ground is sacred; but it does not follow that it will produce only what is fair and comely. To give the good seed a fair chance, we must remove the cumbersome and obstructing growths of rant, cant, superstition, and absurdity.
