m by implicitly recognizing the Nonconformist ministry
and abandoning its claim to reunion through the absorption of all sects
in the Anglican communion. It has so shifted from its former position
that it has openly expressed in the Bishops' manifesto the desire to
place itself on some "no man's land" where all the dissident Churches may
safely meet and unite.

[3] Canon E. W. Barnes, of Westminster Abbey, in a sermon to the members
of the British Association, at their meeting at Cardiff, Aug. 29, 1920,
declared that, to harmonize Christian Doctrine with modern science,
particularly with the theory of evolution, he found it necessary to
abandon the doctrine of the Fall of Man and arguments deduced from it by
theologians, from St. Paul onward.

[4] Father Leslie Walker, S.J., in a recent work on "The Problem of
Reunion," suggests we should enquire rather how we came to differ than
what we differ about.

CHAPTER VI.

"THEM ALSO I MUST BRING"

(Jo. X, 16)

_The Apostolate to Non-Catholics--Its Obligation.
What have we done? What can we do?_

The spiritual influence of a Christian is commensurate with his
appreciation of responsibility. The breadth and depth of vision give
to this moral feeling its field of action. The circle of our influence
ceases with the limits of our spiritual outlook. The boundless and
clear visions of all the Great Apostles in the Church of God give us
the key to the generosity and artfulness of their zeal. Just as the
narrowness of our views explains the restrictiveness of our charity and
the limitations of its activities. This is particularly noticeable in
our dealings with the spiritual needs of those outside the Fold. The
claims of our non-Catholic brethren to our charity do not seem to
affect us, because our spiritual outlook has not the proportions of
that of the Master. With Him we do not stand on those heights from
which we could see beyond our own green pastures, "Other sheep that are
not of His Fold and which we must also bring." This explains how the
claim--"_Oportet_" . . . "_We must bring_"--awakens in us no sense of
responsibility and meets with no answer in the ordinary activities of
our life. Every one seems more or less contented with the lines of
denominational demarcation as he finds them around him in the
community. Not to discuss religion, not to busy oneself with the other
man's belief, to be very frequently rather reticent about our own, is a
p
