Contentshe would enjoy his holidays had Warburg not given him the book by [Heinrich] Weinel, 'Jesus im neunzehnten Jahrhundert' to read; it is difficult to digest; he will have to re-read the gospels and [Adolf] von Harnack's books; comments on Weinel's theories, which lead away from church and which only allow the validity of the gospels without organised religion; on the development in Christianity from a Christianity of the father and of faith to a Christianity of action; 'the shackles of dogma' remained in Catholicism as well as in Protestantism; 'nowhere is the contrast between leading one's life and [the demands of] faith more glaring than in the Christian countries; Weinel is weak when discussing the views of Richard Wagner and Chamberlain on Jesus; has Warburg, after reading the book, become so Christian, that he will no longer feed his brother, unless Warburg has eaten himself?; enjoyed reading the article on the business college; forwards the beginning of an article on the contrast between faith and life; he is prepared to immerse himself into the life of Jesus, but to convert is the same as entering a firm which continuously goes bankrupt
