Synopsis

Explore the life and ideas of John Bascom, a bold thinker who linked religion, science, and liberty in one forward-looking vision. This edition surveys Bascom’s belief in spiritual evolution, immortality, and the collaboration between faith and reason. It presents how his thoughts argued for a dynamic, living faith that grows with human knowledge.

Bascom challenged old religious assumptions and offered a constructive realism that blends mind, matter, and the world’s ongoing growth. The work explains how he saw knowledge as a triad between the knower, the known, and the experience, and how he argued that religion remains vital when it remains connected to reason and experience. It also outlines his stance on immortality, freedom, and the role of God as a personal, perfect being who guides human development without restricting it.

- Learn Bascom’s view of spiritual evolution as a way to reconcile religion with science and philosophy
- See how immortality, freedom, and faith are linked in his thought
- Understand his constructive approach to realism and how it differs from earlier realism
- Discover why he believed religious truth must be consistent with reason and experience

Ideal for readers of philosophy, religious studies, and the history of ideas who want a clear sense of Bascom’s influence on modern thought.
