Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Science and Art of Religion The design exhibited on the cover has been taken from a jewel which is highly prized by freemasons, but I have ventured to place a blazing star in the centre, instead of the human face with the compasses and sphere. Freemasonry appears to me to represent the societies formed by Hebrew and Egyptian priests, and by priests of all ancient nations, to preserve the sacred symbolical language of primitive man before his degra dation; and freemasonry has especially to deal with the collection of sacred symbols made by Solomon and embodied in the Temple. The majority of freemasons probably see nothing in their society beyond a social and benevolent club, and are content to learn a ritual by rote without having any idea of its spiritual meaning, though they are taught that freemasonry is a system of morality, veiled in allegory, and illustrated by symbol. The essential teaching of freemasonry is the duty of striving after perfect archetypes, and especially of cultivating the mind to perfection by the worship of the Archetypal Mind. One of the earliest positive masonic commands was that given by God to Abram, Walk before Me, and be thou perfect. The mind is composed of the intellect or reason, the emotion or feeling, and the will or volition, and these are surrounded and supported by the memory. The intellect corresponds to the brain, the emotion to the nerves. The will to the muscles, and the memory to the blood; while the spirit, or ego, or consciousness, is the life. The spirit is represented by the blazing star in the centre of the equilateral triangle, and the science and art of religion treat of the cultivation of the intellect, the emotion, and the will by the spirit: the mind is perfect when the three elements of mind are equally cultivated and in perfect harmony with one another; and the Circle which surrounds the triangle symbolizes perfection as well as memory. My design shows the perfect mind as existing after death, when the compasses and square will be no longer needed to correct deformi ties; but the masonic design represents Adam before the Fall, when, although his mind was perfect. He had to keep constantly on his guard against imperfection. The freemasons Show the spirit, or the man, as pro vided with the compasses, to indicate that man has been given a conscience to recognize the perfect, and that it is his duty to make his own mind perfect no matter how little his ability, since a circle is equally perfect whether large or small.

If you are in earnest, you must know and feel too, as I do, that the important point is whether' must and ought can go together here. If you, still claiming to be a Christian, hold that your faith may, as well as must, be tested by the methods in question, you hold that it will stand the test: if, on the other hand, you only mean that the process is inevitable, you mean that we have-no eventual prospect before us but Atheism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religion of Science The sources of this situation are plainly discernible. The middle of the last century marks the beginning of present religious thinking. At that time there was a dis tinct uniformity in the presentation of what Christianity is and teaches. The main items were: Hell fire; eternal damnation; the inspiration of the Bible; no salvation for the heathen; salvation by faith; the grace of God; sin; baptism; and heaven for those who believed and were faithful. Salvation was individual and not social. To doubt was one of the greatest of sins. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Religion and Science: From Galileo to Bergson Thus it is quite natural that only a few typical names should, find their places here: and often no sufficient reason may appear for one being included rather than another. For instance, in the tenth chapter, T. H. Green, F. H. Bradley, and A. J. Balfour are mentioned, While Martineau and the Cairds are passed over. Needless to say, there was no doctrinal prejudice here. Again, in the fourth chapter, Pascal is dealt with at some length, but Boehme, an equally important thinker, is ignored. And so on.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Where Science and Religion Meet We are still, as in Plato's age, groping about for a new method more comprehensive than any of those that now prevail; and also more permanent. And we seem to see at a distance the promise of such a method, which can hardly be any other than the method of idealized experience, having roots which strike far down into the history of philosophy. It is a method which does not divorce the present from the past, or the part from the whole, or the ab stract from the concrete, or theory from 'fact, or the divine from the human, or one science from another, but labours to connect them. Along such a road we, have proceeded a few steps, sufficient, perhaps, to make us reflect on the want of method which prevails in our own day. In another age, all the branches of knowledge, whether relating to God or man or nature, will become theknowledge of the revelation of a single science, and all things, like the stars in heaven, will shed their light upon one another.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Faith in an Age of Science In my student days I became deeply interested in the relations of science and religion, and in the tentative and provisional solution of the problems which the advance of science offers to religious thought. The sympathy I have felt with the perplexities of successive classes of students, in an experience of more than thirty years as a teacher of geology and the cognate sciences, has kept the subject ever before my mind. The thought of many years finds expression in the present volume. I have ventured to hope that the book may be useful to several classes of people. To some of my brethren in the church, and particularly in the ministry, who have a hardly adequate appreciation of the value of the contribution which science has made to the world's thought, I have hoped that these pages may bring a more generous appreciation of the results of science, and a greater tolerance of those modifications of religious belief which seem necessary to most scientific men.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bible, Science, and Faith This being the case, the man of science is not only thoroughly untrammelled in his work, but he has absolutely nothing to apprehend, so far as his faith is concerned, from the most searching and the most pro found investigations which may be instituted in any of the manifold departments of historical or scientific research and criticism. On the contrary, he welcomes every genuine contribution to science as a precious addition to the already vast store of knowledge, and he encourages the most thorough investigation in every line of human inquiry as something which is sure to issue in results which shall not only be of value to science, but which shall also be of priceless worth in illustrating and corroborating the truths of faith as well.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Science and Religion It is proper, also, that the author should from his own experience bear testimony that the engrossing cares of a clergyman, in the midst of which these studies have been pursued, need not dull one's interest in scientific study; and, on the other hand, that prolonged study of science does not of itself diminish one's respect for Christianity, and one's interest in the all-important work it is accomplishing for the world. The first chapter was published nearly in its present form in the New Englander, October 1871. The next four chapters appeared at various inter vals in the Bibliotheca Sacra; these have, however, been rewritten and enlarged to meet the demands of the present time. Chapter sixth is in the line of the author's original investigations, and will, with its illustrations, it is hoped, enlarge some what the boundary of human knowledge.
