Outcastness

You can hardly walk along the streets of a great city without seeing swarms rushing eagerly in chase of sin, although shame and scorn and outcastness and destitution and disease and death are glaring with fixt eyes upon them.

Hence if we are to look to the roots of the outcastness of the Irish it is necessary to consider other things beside Catholicism.

Paradoxically counterbalancing this psychologically defined feature is the second, evreiskaja otver-zhennost’ (Jewish outcastness), which pushes the Jew toward sociological disintegration.
