Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A System of Natural Theism
That there is need today of thorough and well - reasoned teaching on this subject - and teaching, too, that gives forth no uncertain sound-is patent to every one who is conversant with present-day college ideals and tendencies. Indeed, among all classes of thinkers, whether in college or out, there is a call and demand for a clear and positive presentation of the theistic proofs. A questionaire re cently sent out by Professor James H. Leuba, of Bryn Mawr College, to a large number of the scientists of the country elicited the response that a majority of them are either agnostical regarding the existence of God, or have become actually atheistic. Professor Leuba's book has thus been characterized by an acute reviewer: This is a plea, or rather the conclusion of a plea, for atheism, with its logical denial of immortality.
