Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Homely Thoughts on the Parables of the Tree of Good and Evil and the Tree of Life in the Light of Science and Religion
T is recognised by thinkers in the worlds of Philosophy, 1 Science and Religion that the period of crisis that has been in existence for the past fifty years is gradually passing away; the great work of analysis is advancing, and it can be seen that an extensive synthesis of modern thought may be attempted with a measure of success. This consensus of opinion is worthy of attention at the same time, it will be well to remember that it is not wise to hurry forward if the fruit is not fully ripe on the tree of knowledge; better wait patiently, work quietly, and permit the fruit to ripen than pluck the fruit while it is yet green.
