Undated:
Abrogation of law (Ten Commandments) v. Sch. a. G. — But we now commence our Christian instruction with the implanting of the Ten Comm. — Luther may not have been able to arrange his catechism otherwise — etc. But what guidance do we now provide with it? Any who, in observing and judging the modern world, take a penetrating look, see that all these commandments get circumvented and broken, and that they therefore probably cannot be divine but profane: whilst Jesus’ one commandment: love your neighbour as yourself, surely abrogates all those commandments? — But, — that goes on and on in such Jewishly-stupid fashion. — What we need is another quite different catechism!
