Professor Charles Zueblin, of Chicago University, will deliver the fifth of his series of six lectures on "A Democratic Religion" in the New Lecture Hall at 4.30 o'clock this afternoon. The topic for today will be "Religion and the State."
Professor Zueblin maintained in his first lecture that the great essential of a man's religion is its well-marked individuality, and set forth the chief agencies that are instrumental in moulding a child's cenception of religion. In the following two lectures the broad realm of orthodoxy, which even extends to politics, social customs, and economics, was forcefully propounded, and the decay of authority was made evident by examples of the power of the parent over the child, the husband over the wife, and employer over the employee. Dwelling on the responsibility of the church last Monday, Professor Zueblin stated that the duty of religion is to moralize the six wants which make towards the well-rounded happiness of a perfect moral society.
The lectures are open to the public.
