Synopsis

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Reason and Reli gion, a subject which occupies the attention of the thinking men of the day even more than at the time of the publication of the first edition. Those who have made but a superficial study of the matter in hand, start with the idea that the Catholic Religion and Reason are antagonistic to each other. The active mind of the cen tury, it is said, is tending more and more to the two poles, Rome and Reason, the sovereign church or the free soul, authority or personality, God in us or God in our masters; and though a man may by accident stand half way between these two points, he must look one way or the other. That Protestantism, as a system of religion, has placed itself in opposition to Reason is undeniable. At first it set aside Reason in Religion altogether, and held that a man by so doing, was all the better Christian. I ts modern advocates acknowledge the authority of Reason while proclaiming religious dogmas altogether irreconcilable with Reason. Hence, the exercise of Reason on the part of a Protestant, must necessarily eliminate from his mind all the peculiar doctrines of his creed.
