Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Unitarian, 1895, Vol. 10 If there is anything which hitherto has been regarded as indisputably the supreme factor in human progress, the distinguish ing characteristic of man over the lower animals, and the department of our being on whose evolution nature is now coneen trating all its energies, it is his intellectual endowment. Literature is forever singing the praises of man's lordly mind and godlike reason. The whole immense dis tance between civilization and savagery is supposed to be due to the difference there is between their natural mental gifts. And, while the Church is regarded as a valuable help in keeping a person, after he has been trained up, from going to the had, our courses of study in school and college, and our taxes and enthusiasm for popular edu cation, are based almost entirely on the idea that the foremost requisite for making a boy a good citizen and a valuable member of society is to make him a good scholar.
