You say in your next sentence: “ To rea- son with him (the fanatic) would be as ab- surd as to try to enlighten the sun with a farthing candle.” Sunâ€"Candle ! l a simile or a hyperbole '? get your rhetoric, and Who were your teachers? Do tell us. Did you study it by candle-light or by sunlight ? We pre- sume that you know experimentally the significant meaning of the word lucubmtion. Has it affected your brain and e’yesight? We fear that you must have been studying it when you should have been sleeping. There is such a law in Mental Philosophy as the association of ideas. Do you ever study nature ? If you do, we must confess that you have no soul, no genius. “ En- lighten the sun with a farthiug candle ? ” Pugh !‘ Your next sentence is as foolish and stu- pid as its predecessors. What do you inâ€" tend to express when you write such non- sensical rubbish as the following 2â€"“ lie is an unreasonable and an unreasoniiig man." Let us paraphrase it. A man that exceeds the bounds of reason and does not exercise the faculty of reason. flow can he exceed the bounds of reason when he does not eni- ploy reason itself? We think this is a faithful portrayal ofyotirself with your own pen! Do not get lost in admiration over the picture, and, please, injure no one. When you write again, sir, please be very lucid : recollect that verbosity is cured by a. wide vocabulary, and, further, do not think that we possess the same unlimited leisure as yourself to solve your conun- drunis. Our time is I‘cl‘j/ limited. Your next sentence we may term a lubri- cator. You endeavour to pour oil on what you think troubled water. There was no storm, except in your own soul, and it was exhausted before it reached us. We are sorry, very sorry, that you troubled your- self. We presume that the printer's devil or compositor has got the worst of it in “ setting tip” the “ copy ” and in printing it. llowever, he has rubbed the type over, as soon as the paper was printed, with the “ lye," so if there existed anything, of which you were afraid, permit us to assure you that. it did not approach our dwelling- places; but, perhaps. it may still be floating around in the vicinity of the printing ofllce. Catch and strangle it i So the fanatic may not he. a! you say, “ neCessarily a bad man,” “ he may he an excellent man.” What a wonderful man you must be! purport ofnll you have been saying? you know your own mind, sir, five minutes '.’ You proceed immediately after making this Is this Where did you 1 And further notice is hereby given, that after the said (late the said executors will distribute the assets of the said Thomas If he is all this, what is the I either 5.3:) or iiiipriponmmn, a, the case Do : l i l l I l l l i l l l I i 1 statement, to say, -- it is the way he does i it." many people too foolish to commit follies '.’ You say a few sentences above this that the “ fanatic misjudges and prejudges ev- erything that interferes with his one idea." We do think that this is applicable to your- self. Just think it over for yourself in your unlimited leisure. ‘ You give. us a little more of your folly in your next sentence. You say that the fun- latie's “intelligence is necessarily limited." ! Is your: '.’ if not. you must be an extraor- telligence! We regret that you did not . manifest a little of it when you wrote that l article. i You say that the fanatic “has only i dinary man, possessing such unlimited iii-- Do you not know yet that there are A. f l i i Well. studied one side of the subject." how many Sides have drunkards to study before they become sober inetl. llliti intelli- gent and respectable citi'lieiis 7 llas a i:i.'.-.- to become a profound theologian before he can be converted 1‘ It may be in the Chitin-ii. but not in the kingdom of Heaven.

Has a child to know Logic before it can say that sopliistry is not reas- oning? Has a man to study Mallioiiiatlrs before he can take his oath solemnly the: two and two make four? You proceed to say. in reference to temp- tation, that the fanatic demands the remov- al of it, and Scripture requires us to resist it. Now, this is fallacious. Do define your terms before you seek to prove anything. Ditlerentiate between generalisation and specialization. The word “ temptation ' is exhibited in Scripture under two aspect». It has two meanings, and, unless we are careful. we fall into serious blunders. l‘ is synonymous with the words «{[I‘lr'rn'um hit-Ks, and again, in another sense, so dillirrcnt that, instead of conniiug it, as the apostle says, all joy, We should dread nothingr more than to fall into these temptations. [In study James 1. 13-15. and especially verses 10-17. Do use the reason your creator has given you. Did you never study limit-H ‘- Analogy 3’ '.’ If not, do it, and that. thoughtfully. Accordingr to your argument. if we could really call it so, we should fill all places with hotels and all other den: of iniquity that men maybe tempted ntid have their Christian graces enlarged and Hi- iiobled. A man is strong only as he keep-t within his limits. if he exceeds them. he is ruined or destroyed. Your st:iteiii~-nt, sir, is productive of suicides. All tha‘. we can say here, and we deem it suflicieiit for the present, is, that it would be a Jan! Christianity that would approve of such a condition of things. It would be the sign of a dead Church and a dead religion. Thank God that Christianity is an nggrew sive religion, and that it is the avowed en~ may of evil in every form. Explain the expression in the Lord's prayer, “ Lead us not into temptation,” by your statement. What “we are taught to seek or shun in prayer, we should equally pursue or avoid in action. Prevention is better than cure. You conclude by stating that “ self-te- speet is a commendable virtue. but when curried too far it becomes pride.” You may have self-respect. We do notdeiiy it. hit, unfortunately, it has become pride. There is very little humilityâ€"that “ good ” and “essential” thing that you refer toâ€"in your composition. Do you think that the iiian who would not deliver a brother from temptation has much self-respect? Yet. from your statement on temptation, this is. your position and condition. The drunkard can boast of humility, as well as you. be- cause when uuder the influence of drink he, lies on the ground. (This is giving the original meaning of Inmum, which means the gmlmdd We,as Christians, have aban- doued the Pagan meaning, and are endeav- oriug to show the Christian meaning. Yut. while doing this noble work, you brand 1H as fanatics. Would to God. sir, you had a little of otir fanaticism. You would in: a better and a nobler man, whoever you are. If there is any law that hinders Christian brotherhood, amend it; failing to amend if, trample it. under foot; but if that should involve loss of living, blessed be God for such poverty: it is the true wealth. Further, we deny unhesitatingly lhnl self-respect when cairied too far l)i.'t'(iltlt‘~l pride. There is both a distinction and a difference in these two words. A man who respects his character is in no danger of displaying arrogaiicy or llfllli(‘lll‘. 'l‘lu- great evil of humanity is flint they do not respect themselves or any body else, and as a natural consequence they become proud in their self-ignorance.
