About this book
Ancient Faiths And Modern is described on its title page as a dissertation upon worships, legends and divinities in Central And Western Asia, Europe, And Elsewhere, before the Christian era, showing their relations to religious customs as they now exist. The dedication inscribes the volume, with great respect, to those who thirst after knowledge and are not deterred from seeking it by the fear of imaginary dangers.
The author argues that if the Bible is true, the Gentiles have spiritual precedence over the Hebrews, and the Pagans have the pas of the Christians. The author stresses the importance of an extended inquiry into the faith, religion, and practice of other nations. The author quotes the Dhammapada as saying a man is not an elder because his head is grey; his age may be ripe, but he is called old in vain. The author mentions a saying that however clever a man is, you make a fool of him by placing a mitre upon his head.
