Evolution and Religion: Or Faith As a Part of a Complete Cosmic System (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Uncover how evolution reshapes belief and life. This thoughtful work explores how the idea of evolution can unify science, philosophy, and religion. It invites readers to see religious life as a social, ongoing development linked to our growing understanding of the world.
Readers will discover how evolution is described not just as a scientific fact, but as a framework that reshapes our view of knowledge, culture, and faith. The book explains how science, philosophy, and religion each interpret the same phenomena, yet in different but complementary ways.
Through clear, accessible language, the text examines how ethical law and spiritual life grow together, how immortality can be understood as a meaningful, super-sensuous belief, and why religious ideas must align with evolving experience to remain alive and relevant.
- How evolution serves as a common ground for science, philosophy, and faith.
- How ethical law, spiritual life, and religious belief influence one another.
- Why immortality is framed as a personal, experiential belief that grows with us.
Ideal for readers of philosophy, religion, and science who seek a thoughtful, balanced view of how our deepest ideas connect to the world we know.

Product Description
We do two most undesirable thines: we make the notion so inflexible as to strangle our intellectual powers, and we struggle with the theory itself as something which we would gladly escape. We hope to bring some relief at both of these points ;to show that evolution Is not a conception in extinction of reason, nor yet a movement in overthrow of faith. Our spiritual life Is Involved in It and built up by it as I ts most comprehensive and consummate product. We In no way grasp our religious beliefs so firmly as when we see that they are woven into the entire web of events.
