The most cruel and unprincipled Turkoman robbers were THE STRUGGLE'S END, AND YET NO END 421 always the first, before setting out on a maraud- ing expedition, to beg from me, the supposed Sheikh, or from some other pious man, a Fatiha (blessing). In the towns of Central Asia, Persia, and Turkey I have found in the thickly-turbaned men of God some of the most consummate villains and criminals, while the plain Osbeg and Osmanli, who only knows religion in its external form, shows himself a man fu...ll of generosity and goodness of heart. In all the Islamic world Mecca and Medina are known as the most loathsome pools of wicked- ness and vice. Theft, murder, and prostitution flourish there most wantonly. I have noticed the same in the large pilgrim haunts. Meshed and Kum, and it is a well-known saying, " He who wants to forsake his Christianity should make a pilgrimage to Jerusalem or Rome. " With us in Europe the relation between morality and religion is a similar one, and how it is possible that, in the face of the revealed facts, states and societies g-ive themselves the trouble to discover in religion a panacea against vice and a standard of morality must remain a mystery to any thinking man.
