To Donald Grant (7 December 1929)

Dear Donald,

I liked the papers you left with me very much. I know of no group whose ideas so closely resemble to mine, as do those of your group.

Perhaps you purposefully left out (in Part II of Christ and Class War) the study of economics and of socialist problems in making your recommendations - in which case I dissent. There is a danger, not realized at yet clear enough which imperials all our efforts. This danger is that Christians might fail to accept the limitations inherent in the existence of society. As long as we are gang to continue to wish for the impossible, the enemies of progress and social justice must, and will always succeed in hindering us to achieve the possible.

No I don't mean the measure of our effort should be the possible. Only in aiming higher than it is given to us
