Clarke soon threw himself See also:heart and soul into the See also:national See also:movement for the abolition of See also:slavery, though he was never what was then called in See also:America a " See also:radical abolitionist." In 1839 he returned to Boston, where he and his See also:friends established (1841) the " See also:- CHURCH
- CHURCH (according to most authorities derived from the Gr. Kvpcaxov [&wµa], " the Lord's [house]," and common to many Teutonic, Slavonic and other languages under various forms—Scottish kirk, Ger. Kirche, Swed. kirka, Dan. kirke, Russ. tserkov, Buig. cerk

Church of the Disciples." It brought together a See also:body of men and See also:women active and eager in applying the See also:Christian See also:religion to the social problems of the See also:day, and he would have said that the feature which distinguished it from any other church was that they also were ministers of the highest religious See also:life
.
Ordination could make no distinction between him and them
.
Of this church he was the minister from 1841 until 185o and from 1854 until his See also:death
.
He was al5q
secretary of the Unitarian Association and, in 1867–1871 See also:professor of natural religion and Christian See also:doctrine at Harvard
.
From the beginning of his active life he wrote freely for the See also:press
.
From 1836 until 1839 he was editor of the Western Messenger, a See also:magazine intended to carry to readers in the See also:Mississippi Valley See also:simple statements of " liberal religion," involving what were then the most radical appeals as to national See also:duty, especially the abolition of slavery
.
The magazine is now of value to collectors because it contains the earliest printed poems of See also:Ralph See also:Waldo See also:Emerson, who was Clarke's See also:personal friend
.
Most of Clarke's earlier published writings were addressed to the immediate need of establishing a larger theory of religion than that espoused by See also:people who were still trying to be Calvinists, people who maintained what a See also:good American phrase calls " hard-shelled churches." But it would be wrong to See also:call his See also:work controversial
.
He was always declaring that the business of the Church is Eirenic and not Polemic
.
Such books as Orthodoxy: Its Truths and Errors (1866) have been read more largely by members of orthodox churches than by Unitarians
.
In the See also:great moral questions of his See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)

- TIME, STANDARD
time Clarke was a fearless and See also:practical See also:advocate of the broadest statement of human rights
.
Without caring much what See also:company he served in, he could always be seen and heard, a See also:leader of unflinching courage, in the front See also:rank of the See also:battle
.
He published but few verses, but at the bottom he was a poet
.
He was a diligent and accurate See also:scholar, and among the books'by which he is best known is one called Ten Great Religions (2 vols., 1871–1883)
.
Few Americans have done more than Clarke to give breadth to the published discussion of the subjects of literature, See also:ethics and religious See also:philosophy
.
Among his later books are Every-Day Religion (1886) and Sermons on the See also:Lord's See also:Prayer (1888)
.
He died at See also:Jamaica See also:Plain, See also:Mass., on the 8th of See also:June 1888
.
His Autobiography, See also:Diary and See also:Correspondence, edited by See also:Edward See also:Everett See also:Hale, was published in Boston in 1891
