ABSTRACT

Anger we have seen busied shaping morals. We have seen it also in its varying place in the great religions. These great faiths may now be connected with those not great, to observe how religion in root as well as branch holds itself with respect to the hostile passions. And to notice well the facts without a tourist’s haste, the several passionate relations should be traversed, one by one,— the feeling of men toward spiritual beings; of these toward one another and toward men; and finally, under religion’s prompting, the emotions which men feel toward their fellow men.
