In the following pages an attempt is made to trace the main lines of growth in that deep change of religious thought which is now proceeding in the modern world. The Author splea is for a whole hearted allegiance to the principles by which that change appears to be governed. These principles he endeavours to bring together and describe in as clear and simple a form as possible. The point of view from which this task is approached could not be better described than in George Eliot swords :W hat is it to be rational what is it to feel the light of the Divine Reason growing stronger within and without? It is to see more and more of the hidden bonds that bind and consecrate Change as a Dependent Growth yea consecrate it with kinship ;the Past becomes my parent, and the Future stretches towards me the appealing arms of children. S. H. M.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolution of religious thought throughout the 19th century, proposing that the foundational principles guiding that shift continue to influence the present and future of religious belief. The author argues that, for religion to remain relevant, it must evolve in accordance with certain universal principles of religious thought and must embrace the potential for a universal, science-compatible faith. The author proposes that the tenets of Unitarian Theologyâ"in particular its emphasis on searching for truth wherever it may lieâ"provide the best groundwork for such a transformation. The book posits that, while some religious institutions may resist change, a liberal, intellectually and spiritually free religion is on the rise, offering a timely and refreshing perspective for those seeking a meaningful spiritual path.
