THE CONTINENTAL MONTHLY:
DEVOTED TO LITERATURE AND NATIONAL POLICY.
VOL. V.-JUNE, 1864.-NO. VI.
ERNEST RENAN'S THEORY.
Christianity is a fact. We sometimes hear of men who are said to 'deny' 'Christianity.' The expression is nonsense. Men cannot deny the sun. Christianity has been a visible thing, on this planet, for eighteen hundred years. It has done a heavy amount of work, which is very visible too. It is altogether too late in the day to '_deny_ Christianity.'
That is the first thing to be understood. There is no arguing against the fact. You must take the fact and make the best of it. If your theoryy requires the annihilation of the fact, it's a bad thing for your theory, for the fact insists on staying.
