Excerpt from Evolution and Religion: Or Faith as a Part of a Complete Cosmic System
HE doctrine Of evolution is so recent a T conception, especially in its bearing on spiritual things, that we are able as yet neither to define it well within itself, nor to see its implications when taken in connection with our higher life. We do two most un desirable things: we make the notion so in flexible as to strangle Our intellectual powers, and we struggle with the theory itself as some thing which we would gladly escape. We hope to bring some relief at both Of these points; to show that evolution is not a conception in extinction of reason, nor yet a movement in overthrow Of faith. Our spiritual life is in volved in it and built up by it as its most com prehensive and consummate product. We in no way grasp Our religious beliefs so firmly as when we see that they are woven into the entire web Of events.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores an intriguing reimagining of the theory of evolution as a concept that unifies all fields of knowledge and action.

The author traces the implications of this understanding throughout the spectrum of human inquiry, from science and philosophy to religion, demonstrating that all forms of knowledge are deeply interconnected.
