Présentation de l'éditeur

The best philosophy is in accord with Paul that truth is spiritually discerned. It is refreshing to read this from Professor Bowne: Truth, as such, is not dependent on demonstration, but exists eternally in its own right. Demonstration is only a makeshift for helping ignorance to insight. It is a stimulus to the mind of the learner to think in certain ways which shall lead him at last to see the truth proposed. The truth here expressed seems to be at the bottom of Plato steaching, that to learn is nothing else than to remember. The mathematical demonstration only helps to the recognition of knowledge native to the soul. In vain are all proofs and evidences unless the learner is led thereby to independent vision. Intuitive theology is the only 1P hilosophy of Theism, p. 31.
