Excerpt from The Question of Questions: Where Is Man's Permanent Home?; Answered by Reason and Confirmed by Reasonable Revelation

If this distinction were complete, I could claim no more for this book on Man's Permanent Home than that it merely multiplies my voice. What I have to say is, indeed, true and useful and, - as far as the thought may be. Separated from the expression, helpfully beautiful; but,'since what is here presented to the reader has been frequently said before, my achievement, measured by Ruskin's standard, may seem to be nothing more than that of putting into print and having bound up in a volume what I have had to say on various occasions. It might even seem incumbent on me to warn the reader not to allow this printed talk to usurp the place of true books.

But, partly by reason of the importance and timeli ness of the message which will be unfolded in the following pages, partly through a desire to contribute more effectually to the spread of spiritual sunshine in the midst of encircling gloom, I must plead for a further distinction. Between the two extremes men tioned by Ruskin there is, I venture to maintain, an intermediate class of books. Though they do not pretend to say what has never been said before, they are nevertheless much more than printed talk; they may even be inspired, if not directly, from the fountain of light and truth, at least indirectly, by the needs of the groping millions. That my printed efforts will find a place in this intermediate class I am bold enough to entertain something akin to hope, not entirely without reason, as I shall endeavor to Show.

Excerpt from The Question of Questions: Where Is Man's Permanent Home?; Answered by Reason and Confirmed by Reasonable Revelation

The subject-matter of this little book requires deep, earnest and, above all, accurate thinking; but, by way of compensation, it offers to the reader this special advantage that, what it requires, it supplies. Having to do, in great part, with the fundamentals of rational psychology, it is more of a mental training than a mentality test; it does not so much presuppose intellectual ability as promise intellectual development. No one can exercise his mind in arguments that have to do with the final destiny of man, without reaping an immense benefit in the nature of increased mental power.

This, of course, is not said in reference to the particular treatment of the subject which will be adopted in the following pages. The treatment is, more or less, my own; the subject-matter and the arguments are very old, - very old, but ever new and attractive. The subject has engaged the attention of all men, at all times and in every circumstance of life. The arguments are the combined result of ancient and modern thought. All the great thinkers of the world have concentrated their mental powers on the question of man's destiny.
