Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Scientific Creed of a Theologian The immediate reason for undertaking the present work, was the honour conferred upon me by the reception of the degree of Doctor of Divinity at the hands of the Protestant Theological Faculty of the University of Tubingen in the year 1897. I felt that I ought to show my gratitude by way of some literary production, but I could not embark upon the work this involved until I had not only retired from my official position, but also given up many other duties connected with it, and found time to follow up my reading of some of the more recent and important scientific works, for the study of which my profession had not allowed me the necessary leisure.

Excerpt: ... chapter iii religion and the scientific record of creation I. The Right Of Hypothesis In Natural Science We shall spare ourselves many subsequent repetitions if, at the very outset of our glance at the work of Science, we discuss its right of hypothesis, that is, its right of advancing theories upon hitherto undiscovered causes of certain phenomena, without these theories having been beforehand proved to be correct. Science is often reproached with working far too much on mere hypotheses, and many people are of opinion that they can with this reproach speedily dispose of the frequently surprising results of scientific research or at least invalidate these results. This reproach is justified only in so far as it warns Science not to treat unproved hypotheses as if they were already proved, and not to posit them as actual laws or facts before it is really known whether they are laws of immutable validity or indeed facts at all. But the reproach is unjustifiable when it is intended to forbid Science advancing hypotheses and working with them as a basis. Hypotheses are absolutely indispensable for research in every branch of Science, and especially in Natural Science which more than any other perhaps is surrounded by unsolved problems. In the most extensive region of scientific research, the region of cosmic physics, there are some hypotheses of which the man of science is conscious that while they have been no more than mere hypotheses they have proved quite indispensable for his discoveries. Such hypotheses are the existence of ether, of the atom, of the molecule. No one can perceive these substances in any empirical way (that is " by experience "), and yet, without taking these for granted, the most important work and noblest triumphs o

Download or read book Christianity and Classical Culture written by Jaroslav Pelikan and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The momentous encounter between Christian thought and Greek philosophy reached a high point in fourth-century Byzantium, and the principal actors were four Greek-speaking Christian thinkers whose collective influence on the Eastern Church was comparable to that of Augustine on Western Latin Christendom. In this erudite and informative book, a distinguished scholar provides the first coherent account of the lives and writings of these so-called Cappadocians (named for a region in what is now eastern Turkey), showing how they managed to be Greek and Christian at the same time. Jaroslav Pelikan describes the four Cappadocians--Gregory of Nazianzus, Basil of Caesarea, Gregory of Nyssa, and Macrina, sister and teacher of the last two--who were trained in Classical culture, philosophy, and rhetoric but who were also defenders and expositors of Christian orthodoxy. On one issue of faith and life after another--the nature of religious language, the ways of knowing, the existence of God, the universe as cosmos, time, and space, free will and immortality, the nature of the good life, the purpose of the universe--they challenged and debated the validity of the Greek philosophical tradition in interpreting Scripture. Because the way they resolved these issues became the very definition of normative Christian belief, says Pelikan, their system is still a key to our understanding not only of Christianity's diverse religious traditions but also of its intellectual and philosophical traditions. This book is based on the prestigious Gifford Lectures, presented by Jaroslav Pelikan at the University of Aberdeen in 1992 and 1993.

Download or read book The Pursuit of Belief Christian Classics Collection written by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-16 with total page 20399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pursuit of Belief - Christian Classics Collection encapsulates an extraordinary confluence of theological inquiry, philosophical meditation, and literary artistry. This anthology traverses a vast temporal landscape, from the patristic period to the threshold of the contemporary, gathering a multitude of voices that have shaped Christian thought and the broader cultural legacy of humanity. It juxtaposes the divine comedy of Dante Alighieri with the existential musings of Friedrich Nietzsche, the transcendental reflections of Ralph Waldo Emerson with the spiritual allegories of John Bunyan, and the mystic insights of St. Teresa of Ávila with the practical Christianity of Charles M. Sheldon, showcasing an unparalleled range of literary styles and theological perspectives. The collection stands as a testimony to the enduring dialogue between faith and reason, individual belief and societal norms. The contributing authors and editors, drawn from varied epochs and geographies, reflect a rich tapestry of historical, cultural, and intellectual contexts. Figures like Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and Leo Tolstoy stand alongside St. Augustine and Martin Luther, exemplifying the anthologys alignment with significant historical and literary movements. This diversity not only illuminates the multifaceted nature of Christian thought but also demonstrates how these varied voices contribute to a deeper, more nuanced understanding of the anthologys central themes. Such an assemblage encourages readers to discern the intricate relationships between faith, culture, and personal conviction across different periods and places. The Pursuit of Belief - Christian Classics Collection is an indispensable volume for those interested in the intersection of faith, literature, and philosophy. It offers readers the unique opportunity to engage with a wide array of perspectives and themes, encouraging a comprehensive exploration of Christian belief as both a personal journey and a collective experience. This anthology is not merely a scholarly endeavor but a voyage through time and thought, inviting readers to ponder profound questions and explore the myriad ways in which the pursuit of belief shapes our understanding of the world and ourselves. As such, it is highly recommended for students, scholars, and anyone with a keen interest in the historical and philosophical dimensions of faith.
