Excerpt from Lectures on the Unknown God of Herbert Spencer, and the Promise and Potency of Prof. Tyndall
The first lecture seems to the author an indisputable ex bibit of the weakness and confusion of thought which are found in the first chapters of the First Principles of Herbert Spencer. The validity of some arguments used in the sec ond lecture, will be questioned by manv candid thinkers still further in time to come, as it has been in the past. We have the firmest confidence, however, in the ultimate issue. Biology, as studied by the scientist, will be found to con tribute toward an enlarged conception of the nature of that revelation of himself which is made in all forms of life, by the One known to Theology these ages past as the Living God.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the ideas of Herbert Spencer, a noted 19th-century scientist and philosopher, and his exploration of the unknowable and the nature of the human soul. The author challenges Spencer's views on religion, specifically his theory of the Unknowable, arguing that it fails to address the fundamental human need for religious experience and the existence of a higher power. The author presents a detailed critique of Spencer's ideas, highlighting inconsistencies and limitations in his arguments. The book goes on to explore the nature of true religious experience, arguing that it is found not in abstract concepts but in the human soul's capacity for love, trust, and obedience. This insightful analysis provides a fresh perspective on the enduring questions of religion and the human condition, inviting readers to consider the profound nature of the spiritual realm.
