Dear Mr. Underhill,
Don’t you think where God & the Devil come in juxtaposition that the latter gentleman should be in Capital as well as the former But for him what would become of our whole theological system In fact he is the main spoke in the wheel We could have had “no fall”, “no redemption” “crucifixion” “resurrection”, without him.
“Original sin”, “salvation” through guilt, the “judgement seat” “everlasting punishment” all these delightful mythologies, would have been lost without him. I say by all means let us print him with a big D. I should like at least a dozen copies of the next number to send some to my native town, where there are people who still remember the old church.
