Haydon in an article on "The Theological Trend of Pragmatism" {American Journal of Theology, October, 1919, p. 408) says: "Religion becomes enthusiasm for social ideals. . . . Religion will still persist. ... Its cult will be the web of civilization. " So also Mr. H. G. Wells in God, the Invisible King (p. 61) : "He is the undying human memory, the increasing human will. " Dr. G. Stanley Hall also declares (Morale, the Supreme Standard of Life and Conduct, p. 354) : "Belief in God . . . Must be... subjectified. " But many of these subjectivists in religion do not hold consistently to their subjectivism. Thus Dr. Hall says (op. Cit.

" Even Dr. Haydon in a later article {Journal of Religion, Vol. I, p. 196) speaks of religion as "just the way we orient ourselves to cosmic realities in the interests of our larger life.
