Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Four Modern Religious Movements
It would be better if the word spiritism were used for this theory; this word is, in fact, so used by the French. Spiritualism or spiritism may be said to be the exaggeration of the Christian doc trines of immortality and the communion of saints, but the exaggeration of a doctrine is often its corruption as well; the history of the Church of Rome contains many examples of that. How ever, as most modern spiritualists have had some Christian training, though usually it is a stupid and inadequate training, the corruptions are not yet very evident.
