[223-1] In a conversation reported by Mr. John Morley, John Stuart Mill
expressed his belief that "the coming modification of religion" will be
controlled largely through men becoming "more and more impressed with
the awful fact that a piece of conduct to-day may prove a curse to men
and women scores and even hundreds of years after the author of it is
dead."

THE MOMENTA OF RELIGIOUS THOUGHT.

SUMMARY.

National impulses and aims as historic ideas. Their recurrence and
its explanation. Their permanence in relation to their truth and
consciousness. The historic ideas in religious progress are chiefly
three.

I. The Idea of the Perfected Individual.

First placed in physical strength. This gave way in Southern Europe
to the idea of physical symmetry, a religion of beauty and art.
Later days have produced the idea of mental symmetry, the religion
of culture. All have failed, and why? The momenta of true religion
in each.

II. The Idea of the Perfected Commonwealth.

Certain national temperaments predispose to individualism, others
to communism. The social relations governed at first by divine law.
Later, morality represents this law. The religion of conduct. The
religion of sentiment and of humanity. Advantages and disadvantages
in this idea.

Comparisons of these two ideas as completed respectively by Wilhelm
von Humboldt and Auguste Comte.

III. The Idea of Personal Survival.

The doctrine of immortality the main moment in Christianity, Islam
and Buddhism. Unfamiliar to old and simple faiths. Its energy and
speculative relations. It is decreasing as a religious moment owing
