During the academic year of 1907-8, the Philosophic Union of the State University of California at Berkeley used my book, The Finality of the Christian Religion, as the basis of its study and discussion. It honored me further by a request to give the annual address before its Union, which I did on August 29, 1908. The address was delivered extemporaneously, but was subsequently dictated in a somewhat enlarged form to a stenographer, for publication in the university Journal. Owing to some agitation of rather a misleading character, in the press, but especially to the kind reception accorded me in Berkeley, for which I am very grateful, I decided to publish the address in book form. Again, I have gone to the pains of amplifying and popularizing it still more, and I have taken the liberty of keeping the form of public address throughout the new matter as well as the old. This accounts for the recurrence of the personal pronoun, for which, now that the book is written, I am inclined to be sorry.
