A LEAGUE OF CHURCHES
     After a league of nations should come a league of churches. The general trend is towards it and the day of its realization is not far distant. 'Tis pleasure to live in a time when persons are learning to consider their similarities of belief rather than their differences.
     A union of Protestant churches presents little difficulty. Certain radical sects of a few years back have not a belief to distinguish them from the most orthodox. Their insistence on probing into the sacred records of church history and in interpreting Biblical statements with liberality, not to say common sense, was viewed by more conservative churches as grave misdemaenors punishable by eternal damnation. Now these liberal churches have nothing to pride themselves on; their ideas are generally accepted.
     For the life of him the Presbyterian can find no greater difference in religious belief between him and his Methodist friend than exists between him and any of his fellow Presbyterians. And so it goes through all Protestantism. In spite of the rules on the church book, obsolete frequently but not stricken off, each church member believes in religion before creed.
     Longer time must elapse before a union can come between Roman Catholicism and Protestantism, but such a federation is not unbelievable. Both sides must grow in tolerance and both sides must be willing to sacrifice something.
     A few months ago three separate Lutheran organizations were merged together under the name of the United Lutheran church in America.
     Meetings are being held from time to time to consider an organic union of the Evangelical churches in America. A league of churches is the most sensible idea brought forth since the league of nations.
