[Up] [Dromo's Den] Minot Judson Savage Biography SAVAGE,
Minot Judson (1841-[1918]) A Unitarian clergyman. He was born at
Norridgewock, Me., entered Bowdoin College, but left before the end of his
course, and pursued his theological studies at Bangor Seminary. Commissioned by
the American Home Missionary Society in 1864, he spent the three following years
at San Mateo and Grass Valley, Cal., then settled at Framingham, Mass., but
removed to Hannibal, Mo., in 1869. His views underwent so decided a change that
he at length withdrew from the Congregational church and in 1873 became pastor
of the Third Unitarian Church of Chicago. The next year he was called to the
Church of the Unity in Boston and remained there until 1896, when he became
minister at the Church of the Messiah in New York City, which pastorate he
resigned in 1906 on account of ill-health. He wrote: The
Religion of Evolution (1876); The
Morals of Evolution (1880); Belief in
God (1881); Beliefs about Man (1882); Beliefs
about the Bible (1883) Social Problems
(1886); My Creed (1887) Jesus and Modern Life (1893); Life
Beyond Death (1899); The Passing and
