Sept. 8th. A head wind set the vessel to pitching; I am seasick again with no supper. I had a conversation on religion with Mr. Stewart of our table. He admits the Christianity, as now extant, is saving only a small minority of its advocates or adherents, the greater portion not living to their profession. He took the passengers as a sample of the world. He was almost led to the conclusion that the orthodox creeds were of man's invention, but he could not conceive of our Heavenly Father as a personage.
