Summary: | "The foundation and immediate occasion of this little book was a lecture given before the Concord Summer School of Philosophy, July 30, 1885, in a "symposium" on the question: "Is Pantheism the Legitimate Outcome of Modern Science?" The real origin of the book, however, was two articles published in 1864 in the North American Review--one in the July number on "The Philosophy of Space and Time," and the other in the October number on "The Conditioned and the Unconditioned." Generally speaking, the theory of Phenomenism versus the theory of Noumenism; the theory of Idealistic Evolution versus the theory of Eealistic Evolution; and the Mechanical theory of Eealistic Evolution versus the Organic theory of Eealistic Evolution, are viewed as the vital philosophical problems of our century, and their solution must determine and decide that of the vital religious problem of Theism, Atheism, and Pantheism. The discussion of these problems constitutes the substance of this book. More specifically, the author believes that these problems have created a philosophical revolution, in that the philosophized scientific method has begun to take the place of the now accepted phenomenistic method in the settlement of all philosophical questions. This book, then, speaks further on the nature and ultimate conclusion of this philosophical revolution"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved). |
