Print on Demand. This book engages in a profound exploration of the most fundamental questions about the origins of the universe and life. The author, grappling with the intellectual and spiritual challenges of his time, delves into the scientific theories of evolution and development, and their implications for religious belief. He meticulously dissects the assumptions and limitations of scientific theories that attempt to explain the complexities of creation, from the formation of chemical compounds to the emergence of life itself. The author masterfully contrasts these theories with the traditional view of a divinely created universe. He argues that the intricate order and design evident in nature, from the mathematical precision of planetary orbits to the complexities of biological systems, point to a purposeful creator rather than a random process of evolution. He questions the ability of purely physical forces to explain the origin and development of life, its inherent complexity, and the remarkable adaptations and co-ordination of different species. The bookââ â ¢s insights into the ongoing debate between scientific materialism and theistic belief, framed within the context of the authorââ â ¢s personal journey, provide a timeless and thought-provoking perspective on the age-old question of the nature of reality and the ultimate source of creation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

Riassunto

Excerpt from The Problem of Problems, and Its Various Solutions; Or, Atheism, Darwinism, and Theism

In the second chapter the author endeavors to present the posthlata and data that we have and must use in solving the problem, and without which a solution is impossible. The great principle of a true inductive philosophy, which the scientist pro fesses to take as his guide, is that we should carefully examine the phenomena, being careful to include all Of them, and by such examination learn their nature and characteristics, and from their characteristics determine their cause, using in the solution all the phenomena and all the aids we can Obtain. While pre tending to take human nature as his standard in his investiga tions and speculations, and human reason as his means of invest igation, the skeptical scientist ignores the religious and spiritual element of our nature, and utterly discards the plainest utter ances and intuitions of the highest - the regnant element of our nature. Then, in the second chapter, we insist on a full state ment of all the phenomena, moral, rational, religious, and spirit ual, as well as physical, that we may have all the data and a full use Of all the elements of our nature. This is especially im portant, since the elements of our nature, ignored by the scientist, are the very ones and the only ones that can solve the problem. The great questions of causation and creation, intelligent causa tion and creation, can be solved only under the guidance and direction of pure reason. And the rational, moral, and religious elements Of our nature, and chiefly by them. We shall endeavor to show that so long as the scientist pursues his present course he can only inform us of the manner in which the phenomena trans pire, but is utterly impotent to tell what caused them and why they transpire.
