Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Religious Implications of Pragmatism Two things there are, said Kant, which are worthy of man's rever ence, the starry heavens above and the moral law within. This out burst Of scientific enthusiasm and moral fervor may be fairly said to epitomize the spirit and the motif of modern philosophy. Whenever and wherever our modern life has presented its problems or vouchsafed its satisfactions one or the other, or both, of these interests have been implicated. And philosophic thought has taken its cues accordingly. Not every thinker has been as catholic in his interests as was Kant. T 0 some the starry heavens above have seemed all-important, while to others the moral law within has made the strongest appeal. But few thinkers, no matter how great their bias in one direction, have been insensible to the problems lying in the other direction. And the pro foundest systems Of philosophy have come from those men who, like Kant, have been concerned with both the natural and the spiritual, the real and the ideal, the is and the ought, have felt these to be incom patible and have sought to penetrate to some deeper principle of unity. This more fundamental principle of unity, however, has not been forthcoming. Spinoza's God or Nature, Kant's Thing in Itself, Hegel's Absolute, and Spencer's Unknowable - all are but grim testimonies of the persistence of the problem. It is as urgent today as it was in an earlier and more metaphysical age. To be sure, we have become suspicious of the possibility or the worth of ultimate principles and impatient with any philosophy which attempts to formulate such principles. With the development of scientific methods, our practical problems have so multiplied and our immediate experience has become SO engaging as to leave us little time or inclination for the consideration of problems of a more strictly philosophic character. Furthermore, as knowledge has become more and more specialized, a sort of division of labor has served to isolate the various fields of human interests and activities, and to Obscure the fact Of their connections. But, while this specialization of knowledge has its advantages, it likewise has its dangers. The quality Of the work done by the particular sciences is apt to be impaired by too rigid an isolation of their respective fields. Life itself is not made up of clearly marked Ofi fields of interest and activities. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Pragmatism written by William James and published by . This book was released on 2017-08-07 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pragmatism is a philosophical tradition that began in the United States around 1870. Its origins are often attributed to the philosophers William James, John Dewey, and Charles Sanders Peirce. Peirce later described it in his pragmatic maxim: "Consider the practical effects of the objects of your conception. Then, your conception of those effects is the whole of your conception of the object."Pragmatism considers thought an instrument or tool for prediction, problem solving and action, and rejects the idea that the function of thought is to describe, represent, or mirror reality.[3] Pragmatists contend that most philosophical topics-such as the nature of knowledge, language, concepts, meaning, belief, and science-are all best viewed in terms of their practical uses and successes. The philosophy of pragmatism "emphasizes the practical application of ideas by acting on them to actually test them in human experiences"Welcome to a special edition of a renowned classic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Problem of Religion The little book presented here is not a treatise on theological apologetics in an old sense of the term. I have rather been interested to trace out, in a way which would be fairly consonant with our present knowledge, and satisfactory to my own scientific conscience, the natural implications of our common and our scientific experience with a view to seeing what justification could be given for a religious conception of the world, independently of revelation, or of any other cabalistic sources of religious truth. My way has not been an entirely new way. If it were, it would rightly be under suspicion. The philosophical reader will likely miss many of the refinements of modem philosophical speculation, and any distinct recognition of the very energetic reaction to idealism, of which (I trust he will believe) I am not entirely innocent. To the essential truth in pragmatism, that new version of a very ancient way of thinking, I have indeed tried to do justice.

Download or read book Religious Values and Intellectual Consistency Classic Reprint written by Edward Hartman Reisner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-10 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.
