Excerpt from Comparative Religion
The attitude a man takes towards God, or the idea of God, is of fundamental importance for himself; and he is therefore naturally interested in knowing what is the attitude taken up by others who, being men, are like himself. So far as he knows it, or surmises it, he cannot help comparing it with his own attitude: he has started on the Method of Comparison, and he cannot help seeing both resemblances and differences between his own attitude and that of others. Having started, he may or may not go on; but, if he stops short, his comparisons will not be of much value to himself or anybody else: the Comparative Method must take into account all the facts, or else it will be misleading. Nothing human can be wholly without interest for any man, or without its lesson for him, if he has
intelligence and sympathy ; and the more sympathy and intelligence he has, the deeper will be his interest. From the study of Comparative Religion, that is, from the study of the attitude taken towards God in the religions of the world, he may learn something of the deepest interest, if he has any sympathy with his fellow-man.
