Charles T. Shaffer,
Lost Lake,--
Dear Mr. Shaffer,---Wlt'h my he!p, do .you think
you would be equal 40 the task Of wf-iting a basic
and fundamental htlt0y of Religions Starting
with probabiNths uveooedl, and covering the
two hundred or more deP4rd'ilations in chapters
bringing out the higRighta, ecrors and assump-
tions, etc.?
Maybe God Almtghty instigated religion to
decimate the aWees o Il-lantty, if so It works.
re my mi.nd there Is @ killer s ruthless and
greedy as a religious fahatlc, ever.
Religious 'bsllefb Injected into an aboriplnal
mind has dreno'hed the earth with blood from
time immemorable. That's why R ussia has
banned it until such time (a), when hsr illiter-
ate neoples can see eye to eye with learned
people.
t
A historical theis"bft religl would be the
world's best seller, and a seeing e,s for tkie
world's blindest, and a finger ointig out the
ruthless exploitcra of the belief in God-"
Yours truly, (Signed) Win. W.A.

Doember NB, 1947.
Dear Mr. Aderson,
Your kind favor of the l@th ins(. was duly
received, and the ¢0tets read and considered.
The question which yU ask, "With my hel0, do
you think you wouF 'be eelua to the task of
writing a basic and fundamental history of Re-
ligions starting w[t 10rObabllltles umrecorded,
and covel@ tha two h,uPlPed or mere dee-
Inations, in chapters, bringing out the highlights,
errors, and asssufftpt:s; ete?" The comments
which you add to the above question make clear
what your sta f id ia rdlative to both AI-
mighty God, alibi Teii@'ion ¢ ¢leneral.
With this uldllin¢$ f the ¢luestlon, my
answer is, NO. I AM NOT ABLE TO DO THI8.
The task, when o;4@ed, wodd mean the writ-
ing of not mery 'te ook, but a number of
books, totaling a t ,about tire ize of an En-
cyclopedia Brittanica,
It w0ulcl mean a CRITICAL eXamlnatlon of
the creeds of each of the religious beliefs which
have influenced ma'nklnd slnoe the beginning of
human history. I did ,haVe a complete set of
books covering tl f|eld of your queation, many
years ago In my llbfuary; t:oke wrltta by schol-
ary men. with the 'Peouvcee for their work at
hand for refePebe purlNes, rne both cavable
as judges in evidence, atoll oeet tn their deois-
ion, men wPro were not hampered by prejudice,
and the sum of thelf tabors is that Religion in
itself, is not dstructive, b@t oestructivethat
real and true Religion is a matter of motive, and
has nothing whatcver to do with the human
translation of mettve Ito enfo:rcemcnt.
Enforcement ts wholly human and physical. In
that field AMB;TIOI tS the human equation,
and Is reslonsible fer the method employed, and
not RELIGION Itsellf.
That the 0rotagotllts Of religion have re-
sorted to deceit and violonce toward mankind in
their proselyting is 'no argument against RELIG-
ION, as such. As well claim that the purest
water is vile after a person has put it In an un-
clean vessel. It Is the vessel itself which Is vile
and not the water, So it is with religion, It is
man who in vile, and not RELIGION. The place
.where Almi@ty God fills In the picture is where
he, by various ways and means, tri e gbt the
vessel clean before putting the water Ito it,
But man's t¢on to that 'ean'ing up task is
exactly the came a,s that of tWe avera@e small
boy toward geti9 Iris dirty fae wthl. And
it Is right here that the well-disposed mother
resorts to force for decenoy's sake, aa well as
or the welfare of the child himself. Even the
child R]4fflrBe'lf, seeing hie improved a@pearance,
i
confesses to hi.self at least, that the reulrad
force was a good thing for him, That dehtion
is simple honesty. .B'lt even herc the force era.
nloycd has nothing T4 do with the need for clean
[iness.
Again, all relig/0, a it very name implies,
Is an impelling force from within the man's
own heart, and Is not an exte'nal powsr."fll-
where exeevt bn ma, de we ee violonce at-
