Summary
Would I, even if I were a Buddhist, be willing to see Christ die out altogether from the hearts of men? Would I be willing to have men forget that He ever lived, forget His words, imperfectly as they are given to us? Even though it is proved in some future time that there never lived an actual Christ and what we think of as Christ should some day be found to be the essence of men’s dreams of simplest and most beautiful goodness, would I be willing to have that personification of dreams pass out of men’s minds?
