164 THE FORMATION OF CHRISTENDOMEpicurus," is the type of the former frame of mind :Plutarch, who finds the hours spent in their servicea delight, of the latter. Here, however, we are mettwo contrasts: the Stoic and the Platonic characteron the one hand, the Greek and the Latin mindon the other.There are two men of this period, exact contemporaries,both Greeks, one a writer who has had greatinfluence, the other a man whose sayings as collectedby a disciple are among the most noteworthy utterancesof heathenism. Both are remarkably religions,if compared with Cicero or any man of the Augustanor Tiberian time. But the character of their religionis quite different. Epictetus is a rigid mouotheist inso far as this that the only God whom he worshipsis the reason which is in every man, and is part ofthe one divine being. Upon this single ground heestimates every action, and divides his day into itsseveral duties as a Christian might. All externalgoods, rank, wealth, beauty, talent, health, are viewedby him with regard to this one standard. A manis fulfilling his duty as man, not in proportion ashe possesses these, but as possessing more or less ofthem. Not having it in his power at all to determinethe degree in which he has them, he uses whathe has of them according to the dictates of reason.And all other men, since they possess this divineattribute, as he does himself, are by nature brethren,common children, he even calls them, of one God.In reality they are rather parts of one God, and goback to him, or more properly to it, with no consciousexistence after death. If piety be possible tosuch a frame of mind, Epictetus is pious. But it isplain that he does not aim at a restoration of heathen
THE STANDING-GROUND OF PHILOSOPHY165polytheism. His whole system is a most completedethronement of " the immortal gods." He substitutesfor Jupiter and all his Olympian assessors of pantheisticDeism that tremendous form of necessity, out of whichheaven and earth, gods and heroes, men and animalsare formed in endless evolution, and return back againinto its exhaustless bosom. Epictetus has been admiredand copied in every jage by those who, born andnurtured in Christianity, »/ ^ have been unable to sustainthe weight of the Cross and the glory of a consciouseternity, or have loved and fostered the pride of anindependent human nature rather than embrace theshame of a suffering God. He is the parent of modernDeism.The old rugged temper of Stoicism is wonderfullysoftened in Epictetus. Humanity and kindlinessbreathe in his precepts. You feel the slave who hasgone through all the trials to which man's life is subject, and learnt by his own sufferings to sympathisewith the sufferings of others. He is supposed to havibeen born in A.D. 45. .Thus he would be twenty yearof age in the year 65, and was a young man at Kom
