MINOT JUDSON SAVAGE
'Minot Judson Savage' (10 June, 1841-22 May, 1918) was an American Unitarian minister and author.
Savage was born in Norridgewock, Maine in 1841. He graduated from the Bangor Theological Seminary in 1864, and for nine years was in the Congregational ministry, being a home missionary at San Mateo and Grass Valley, California, until 1867. He held pastorates at Framingham, Massachusetts from 1867 to 1869, and at Hannibal, Missouri from 1869 to 1873.
Savage then became a Unitarian, and was pastor of the Third Unitarian Church of Chicago from 1873 to 1874, of the Church of the Unity in Boston from 1874 to 1896, and of the Church of the Messiah (now renamed the Community Church) in New York City from 1896 to 1906.[1] He was an active advocate of Darwinian evolutionistic optimism and social reform, and he also preached a spiritualistic faith in personal survival after death. His sermons were distributed in the pamphlets ''Unity Pulpit'' and ''Messiah Pulpit''. Minot Judson Savage: Andover-Harvard Theological Library
He wrote many books, including ''Christianity, the Science of Manhood'' (1873), ''The Religion of Evolution'' (1876), ''The Morals of Evolution'' (1880), ''The Religious Life'' (1885), ''My Creed'' (1887), ''The Evolution of Christianity'' (1892), ''Our Unitarian Gospel''[2] (1898), ''The Passing and the Permanent in Religion'' (1901), ''Life Beyond Death'' (1901), ''Can Telepathy Explain?'' (1902), ''Life's Dark Problems'' (1905), ''Immortality'' (1906), and, in addition to other volumes in verse, ''America to England'' (1905).
He was a director of the American Unitarian Association, and served on several councils and conferences. In 1896 he was granted an honorary doctor of divinity degree from Harvard University in 1896.
