<Through a study of the primitive god-idea as manifested in monumental records
in various parts of the world; through scientific investigation into the early
religious conceptions of mankind as expressed by symbols which appear in the
architecture and decorations of sacred edifices and shrines; by means of a
careful examination of ancient holy objects and places still extant in every
quarter of the globe, and through the study of antique art, it is not unlikely
that a line of investigation has been marked out whereby a tolerably correct
knowledge of the processes involved in our present religious systems may be
obtained. The numberless figures and sacred emblems which appear carved in
imperishable stone in the earliest cave temples; the huge towers, monoliths,
and rocking stones found in nearly every country of the globe, and which are
known to be closely connected with primitive belief and worship, and the
records found on tablets which are being unearthed in various parts
o
f the world, are, with the unravelling of extinct tongues, proving an almost
inexhaustible source for obtaining information bearing upon the early history
of the human race, and, together, furnish indisputable evidence of the origin,
development, and unity of religious faiths.
By comparing the languages used by the earlier races to express their
religious conceptions; by observing the similarity in the mythoses and sacred
appellations among all tribe and nations, an through the discovery of the fact
that the legends extant in the various countries of the globe are identical, or
have the same foundation, it is probable that a clue has already been obtained
whereby an outline of the religious history of the human family from a period
even as remote as the first dispersion, or from a time when one race
comprehended the entire population of the globe, maybe traced. Humboldt in his
Researches observes: In every part of the globe, on the ridge of the
Cordilleras as well as in the Isle of Samothrace, in the Aegean Sea, fragments
of primitive languages are preserved in religious rites.
Regarding the identity of the fundamental ideas contained in the various
systems of religion, both past and present, Hargrave Jennings, in referring to
a parallel drawn by Sir William Jones, between the deities of Meru and Olympus,
observes:
All our speculations tend to the same conclusions. One day it is a discovery
of cinerary vases, the next, it is etymological research; yet again it is
ethnological investigation, and the day after, it is the publication of
unsuspected tales from the Norse; but all go to heap up proof of our
consanguinity with the peoples of historyand of an original general belief, we
might add.>
