Excerpt from Development and Divine Purpose
Fellow of New College, and I am glacl to take this opportunity of expressing my grati tude for all that he has done for me in the way of moulding and stimulating my mental development. Though, with the exception of a suggestion or two for the introductory lecture, the present course was written without advice from him or from any one, yet I feel that the interchange of ideas which we have had together during the past few years, as occasion has offered itself, has helped not a little to de termine my present outlook, both theological and philosophical. This is not a kind of debt which can be repaid. The only form of re payment possible is to follow the leading So generously given, and while striving to grow oneself into a clearer vislol'l and larger under standing of the truth, to share with others thoughts which have proved themselves so pregnant with life for one's own mind.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, first published in 1906, proposes a philosophical exploration of religion and the evolution of Christian ideas in the advent of Darwinism. The author, whose intellectual landscape is strongly influenced by the ideas of personal idealism, presents a series of lectures addressing the evolution of ideas concerning God and religion in light of the scientific developments of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Specifically, he examines the implications of Charles Darwinâs theory of natural selection, and the philosophical challenges it presented to the argument from design. The author also suggests a restated argument from design in light of these developments. The bookâs insights are particularly important because they attempt to reconcile Darwinâs findings with the existence of purpose in nature and the validity of religious belief.
