Synopsis

The book ""The Goal Of Life Or Science And Revelation"" by Hiram E. Butler is a philosophical treatise that explores the relationship between science and religion in the quest for the ultimate purpose of human existence. The author argues that both science and revelation have a role to play in understanding the goal of life, and that the two are not mutually exclusive but rather complementary.Butler delves into various topics such as the nature of God, the purpose of creation, the role of humanity in the universe, and the concept of free will. He draws on a wide range of sources, including the Bible, Eastern and Western philosophy, and scientific discoveries, to support his arguments.The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it suitable for both scholars and general readers who are interested in exploring the deeper questions of life. It is a thought-provoking work that challenges readers to think critically about their own beliefs and values, and to consider the role of science and religion in shaping our understanding of the world around us. Overall, ""The Goal Of Life Or Science And Revelation"" is a valuable contribution to the ongoing dialogue between science and religion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Our excuse for offering this book to the world in a time when books have become a drug on the market, will be found in the following: In the history of Christianity we believe that knowledge of God and of the Christ has never been so vague and uncertain as at present. There is in the intuitive mind, a consciousness that there is something which if known would put in order and harmonize the revelation of the Spirit and the faith of the Christ with science. This consciousness on the part of the many, is a hunger and an outreaching of the soul for someone to put in order, in a brief and concise form, the great truths that have been obscured by the beliefs of the world for all the ages past. This we have tried to do. If we have been able to present to the mind of the thinker, first, a reasonable idea of God, second if we have been able to remove a vague, uncertain mystery that shrouds man's relation to God and to bring him face to face with something that he can take hold of tangibly—not with his devotional nature only, but with his reason and with the ordinary consciousness—then we shall feel that we have accomplished much. Our effort herein has been to expand the conception of God, the conception of the universe, and of the immensity of all that is; and to show that in this immensity there is found a unity, in this unity a mind that has a purpose, and that this mind has in it all power and is therefore ruling absolutely, as the vitality and potentiality of all that is, therefore the purpose in this mind—the object for which all things exist—is being carried out with absolute certainty, nothing being able to resist it, for all life upon this planet is as a drop taken from the great ocean of life and must ever remain subject to the law of its original Source.
