Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Anthropology of Evolutionism and the Bible In discussing the relations of Science and Religion, it is frequently said that Evolutionism is not inconsistent with either Theism or Revealed Religion. That it does not necessarily exclude the idea of a personal Creator of the universe may be admitted. At the same time it should be borne in mind that the hypothesis was originally proposed by old Greek atheists; that within the past century it was revived in the interest of atheism; and at the present day, as stated and defended by many of its most prominent advocates, it is avowedly atheistic. This historical attitude of Evolutionism cannot be wholly accidental, and deserves the consideration of those who may be disposed to regard the hypothesis as a harmless scientific speculation. That it may be held in consistency with Theism is, however, a matter of comparatively little moment. The important question is its relation to Revealed Religion. That it is not inconsistent with the Scriptures, is maintained by Mivart, a devout Romanist, in his work on "The Genesis of Species." It is distinctly intimated by Professor Gray, a devout Protestant, in the Preface to "Darwiniana." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Evolution of Theology written by Thomas Henry Huxley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of Theology: An Anthropological Study But it is often said with exultation by writers of one party, and often admitted more or less unwillingly by their opponents, that these books are untrustworthy, by reason of being full of obviously un historic tales. And, as a notable example, the narrative of Saul's visit to the so-called witch of Endor' is often cited. As I have already intimated, I have nothing to do with theological partisanship either heterodox or orthodox, nor, for my present purpose, does it matter very much whether the story is historically true, or whether it merely shows what the writer believed; but, looking at the matter solely from the point of View of an anthropologist, I beg leave to express the Opinion that the account of Saul's necromantic expedi tion is quite consistent with probability. That is to say, I see no reason whatever to doubt, firstly, that Saul made such a visit; and, secondly, that he and all who were present, including the wise-woman of Endor herself, would have given, with entire sincerity, very much the same account of the business as that which we now read in the twenty eighth chapter of the first book of Samuel; and I am further of opinion that this story is one of the most important of those fossils to which I have referred in the material which it offers for the recon struction of the theology of the time. Let us therefore study it attentively - not merely as a narrative which, in the dramatic force of its gruesome simplicity, is not surpassed, if it is equalled, by the witch scenes in Macbeth - but as a piece of evidence bearing on an important anthropological problem.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bible Doctrine of Man: Or the Anthropology and Psychology of Scripture The aim is to present in one view the Bible Theology and Philosophy of Man and his Nature. What is claimed for this endeavour, in the specific department of Biblical Psychology, is to have called attention to the distinction which the Bible attributes to spirit, as the highest element in man's constitution, and on the possession of which is grounded its unique doctrine of man's likeness to his Maker. It also claims to be a consistent exposi tion of the relations of soul and spirit in man. Rejecting as unscriptural and unsupported by reason the notion which founds upon the Bible use of these terms a Tripartite Theory of man's nature, cause is yet shown why the neglect of that usage, as a meaningless parallelism, must yield to accurate exegesis and historic fact. These two discussions specially exemplify that which it is the object of the whole treatise to maintain, namely, that a study of the psychological ideas of Scrip ture throws valuable sidelights on its doctrinal teaching.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution Explained and Compared With the Bible The Adversaries of the Doctrine of Evolution frequently say, that it has not been scientifically verified, and there fore, ought not to be accepted. Like the adversaries of the Bible, they demand evidence, which in the nature of the case cannot now be produced, and reject the light of such evidence as we do possess. But no man can do this and be truly honest. The jury box, and on their oath, is not the only place where upright men are called upon to decide their minds by Me wezlglzt of evidence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution Illuminating the Bible IT is evident that the material views advanced by our leading men of science are causing a class of Christians much anxiety. One object I had in writing this volume was to draw the attention of this class to the fact that our Lord clearly advanced such views, when he defined man in his natural state as a unit of Body and Mind - graphicly classed by Him as that which is born of the Flesh is Flesh, - put in contrast with the new sentiment conversion imparts, defined as one born of the Spirit, Spirit. - ]ohn iii. 6. He was instructing Nicodemus on this vital principle of Christianity, who recognised Jesus as a teacher come from God, and came to be taught by Him. Nicodemus, like many in our day, who are startled by materialism, was greatly amazed when informed of the necessity of being born again before he could see the kingdom of heaven. But such is the case. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Christian Anthropology  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Christian Anthropology Classic Reprint written by John Thein and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Anthropology Father Thein, in the present work, has followed the pru dent, reasonable method we have just sketched. He has been an enthusiastic student of science, deeply interested in its progress. To anthropology above all - the science of man - he has given years of study and research. With patient toil and vigilant eye he has delved in biological, geological, and archaeological books and periodicals for what ever could throw light on the nature, the origin, and the early history of man. At the same time he has never lost sight of the teachings of Scripture and the Church. But Father Thein never saw the irreconcilable conflict between science and religion which some writers see all around them. In his book he offers to us the fruits of his studies. He sets down the most important facts and theories in modern anthropology. He constantly cites the great masters of anthropological science. He discusses the views of modern thinkers, frequently by laying before the reader the diver gent opinions Of other thinkers of acknowledged merit. He gives title and page for his references. Thus, while freely giving his own Opinion on the points at issue, he enables the reader to judge for himself what is and what is not demonstrated scientific truth.

Book Theology and Evolutionary Anthropology

Download or read book Theology and Evolutionary Anthropology written by Celia Deane-Drummond and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-01-29 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sets out some of the latest scientific findings around the evolutionary development of religion and faith and then explores their theological implications. This unique combination of perspectives raises fascinating questions about the characteristics that are considered integral for a flourishing social and religious life and allows us to start to ask where in the evolutionary record they first show up in a distinctly human manner. The book builds a case for connecting theology and evolutionary anthropology using both historical and contemporary sources of knowledge to try and understand the origins of wisdom, humility, and grace in ‘deep time’. In the section on wisdom, the book examines the origins of complex decision-making in humans through the archaeological record, recent discoveries in evolutionary anthropology, and the philosophical richness of semiotics. The book then moves to an exploration of the origin of characteristics integral to the social life of small-scale communities, which then points in an indirect way to the disposition of humility. Finally, it investigates the theological dimensions of grace and considers how artefacts left behind in the material record by our human ancestors, and the perspective they reflect, might inform contemporary concepts of grace. This is a cutting-edge volume that refuses to commit the errors of either too easy a synthesis or too facile a separation between science and religion. As such, it will be of interest to scholars of religious studies and theology – especially those who interact with scientific fields – as well as academics working in anthropology of religion.

Book excerpt: "In The Good Book of Human Nature, evolutionary anthropologist Carel van Schaik and historian Kai Michel advance a new view of Homo sapiens' cultural evolution.

Religion arose as a strategy to cope with the unprecedented levels of epidemic disease, violence, inequality, and injustice that confronted us when we abandoned the bush--and which still confront us today, "--Amazon.com.
