A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Those, who have had a clear view of the field of religious philosophy during the last half century, know that all the heights of that field have been the scene of a bitter warfare between Pantheism and A nthropomorphism. They have seen that the former has become master of many of the securest strongholds ;that she has gained new ground and strength and courage, with every succeeding year :that she is confident of remaining complete master of the field at no distant time ;that her entire defeat, judging from the past, is a matter of impossibility :and that the struggle must continue to be the main occupation of polemic religionists inC hristendom for several decades of years. Pantheism is older than history. Hindoo philosophers, who lived before the foundations of the pyramids were laid, taught that Brahm, the universal spirit and force, pervaded every particle of matter from all eternity, and was inseparable from it. The same idea was adopted by some of the speculative Boodhists. In Greece Democritus, Anaxagoras and others refused to acknowledge the Zeus of popular mythology and taught that the only God was the soul of matter. I ndeed, Herder says, that none of the ancient philosophers conceived God as a being distinct from the world :and certain it is, that those most inclined to anthroP earson the author of the latest and ablest work on the Antichristian Philosophy of the day says that Pantheism is in christian lands the most dangerous foe to Christianity.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
