We need a new theology, but not a new religion. Religion is the life of God in the soul of man. This divine life is in its manifestation ever new, in its essential principle ever old. Theology is the science of this life, that is, it is the intellectual statement, in an orderly manner, of the laws of that life as they are understood by man. Such intellectual statements of life change from time to time with increased knowledge and with an altered point of view. The stars are the same, but we have a new astronomy; flowers the same, but we have a new botany; religion is the same, but we need a new theology.
