Excerpt from Religious Values and Intellectual Consistency
Since religion is so largely concerned with values, it necessarily follows that it contains a large amount of contingency; for values are empirical in their origin. To be sure, there is almost unanimous recognition of a certain group of values that are very closely related to the preservation of biological integrity. These values represent man's dependence on his physical environment. As the main condi tions of life are everywhere the same, we find in our own devotions petitions that have made their appeal to mankind through all ages. On the other hand, there are values that are highly contingent. These occur in connection with the ethical life and vary with economic, political, and intellectual conditions. The ethical values that we discover in the experience of successive heroes of our reli gious history differ vastly from one another. Abraham, Moses, Samuel, Elijah, Amos, deutero-isaiah, Ezekiel, Jesus, Paul, Benedict, Luther, Fichte, to come no nearer the present day, may each be said to stand for a significant change in the valuation of conduct. Among them is a wide variation in regard to what is to be called good. 'some of the values held to directly contradict and annul others. But all are parts of the same developing tradition, all are referred to God for his sanction, and each, in its time and place, expressed the current need.

Calificación del vendedor: 5 de 5 estrellas
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the interplay between religion and intellectual consistency. It traces the evolution of the intellectual setting of Christianity from its Hebrew origins through its fusion with Greek philosophy in the Middle Ages, and finally to its confrontation with modern science. The author argues that the traditional intellectual framework of Christianity has been undermined by the rise of empirical science and the emergence of a new set of human values. This has led to the development of new religious philosophies, such as those of Fichte and Hegel, which attempt to reconcile religious experience with the demands of reason. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the philosophical and historical issues involved in the relationship between religion and intellectual consistency, making it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the intellectual history of religion. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
