A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Evolution from the stand-point ofT heism has been a long-felt want. Scientifically considered, Evolution is no longer a mere hypothesis, but has assumed its place among the recognized truths which the intellect of man has wrung from the arcana of nature. The rounded outlines of the doctrine of Evolution rise up before us in all their fullness and beauty, challenging alike our admiration and veneration. It may be likened to a majestic temple, whose broad foundations are laid upon the everlasting rocks of truth, and whose mighty dome embraces the Universe. Through mans patieut toil and industry, nature has yielded up the treasures with which this wondrously beautiful edifice has been erected. One by one the stones have been placed, until the swelling proportions of column and dome warn us that the hour of dedication is at hand. Let all who will enter in and worship. Generations have perished in the great undertaking since the corner-stone was laid, but the upward course of the structure has not been stayed, and the work of every generation has enabled its successor to build higher and truer. Many of those who have been the foremost builders in erecting this grand structure have failed to realize the significance of their own handiwork. They builded better than they knew. The chief object of the following pages is to do somewhat toward stemming the torrent of Sceptical or A gnostic belief which is sweeping away old land-marks and essaying to undermine the very foundations upon which religion and morality are based. Whilst the ultimate triumph of these principles can never be doubted, yet it becomes the duty of every one whose convictions are deep and earnest so to act as if these principles were in jeopardy, and to do all in his power to turn back the destroying tide.
