Denling with Religion Patriolism, the Bishop's main contention was that. Patriotions (like Religion) is educational activity, and in therefore in danger of becoming merely fana- ticiam if its objective fi too limited.

There has been no king perhaps so naturally and unostentatiously in- terested in people as people; so un- assuming in his relations with every grade of wealth or poverty in the country. It has not been by adroit mess or by ninaterfulness," or by deeply Inid plans, that the position of the throne of England has been so strengthened in the last 24 years, bul by qualities which the world owes to the first 3 years of the Christina ora.

Emotional Activity.
The velation “between "religion" and patriotism was well rubbed into me by the mutta of my school "Dro-epi-Vicina,”—"For God. For King. For Neighbour." It
is a lengstation of the words in St. James Epistle: "Fear God, Serve the King, Love the Brotherhood." But if you compare it with the sum mary of the Inŵ given by Our Lord. "Love God with heart and mind and strength, and your neighbour as your. self" you will see how patriotism has woven itself into religion. The mor af religion is "For God and neigh- bour." Patriotism has inserted the middle term.
Alliance between patriotism onl religion is made possible becnuze neither religion nor patriotiam are rational netivities. In Baying they are not rational I am not condemning them. The highest activities of men are his emotional activities. When we say "God is love" we make emo tional activity the centre of the uni- verze. Patriotism and religion also have this in common that they appeal to the highest aud deepest that is In man, his expnelly for complete sur- render of himself.
Indeed, patriotism corroborales the Christian faith. If "God is love," then it is likely that the human beings He has made will And the profoundest
