Excerpt from God the Known and God the Unknown There are many who see nothing in this tendency of our nature but occasion for sar casm; those, on the other hand, who hold that the world is by this time old enough to be the best judge concerning the manage ment of its own affairs will scrutinise this management with some closeness before they venture to satirise it; nor will they do so for long without finding justification for its apparent recklessness for we must all fear responsibility upon matters about which we feel we know but little on the other hand we must all continually act, and for the most part promptly. We do so, therefore, with greater security when we can persuade both ourselves and others that a matter is already.

Excerpt from The Unknown God "There's the mission," said the Rev. Ainsley Simon, briskly waving his hand at the middle distance. Having said which he slowly came to a stop, and began mopping his forehead with a coarse white handkerchief which he took from his baggy pockets. "Oh," ejaculated young Mr. Hancock a little doubtfully in response. He gazed long and carefully. "Oh," he said a second time more slowly, as if, on reflection, he had really found that that exclamation fitly summarized his entire impressions. The prospect was perhaps a little curious for a young man, who had been bundled so fast from England to this distant up-country station, that he had not had time to sort out and arrange his general impressions - let alone make up his mind quite definitely about any one specific fact.

"GOD the Known and God the Unknown" first appeared in the form of a series of articles which were published in "The Examiner" in May, June, and July, 1879. Samuel Butler subsequently revised the text of his work, presumably with the intention of republishing it, though he never carried the intention into effect. In the present edition I have followed his revised version almost without deviation. I have, however, retained a few passages which Butler proposed to omit, partly because they appear to me to render the course of his argument clearer, and partly because they contain characteristic thoughts and expressions of which none of his admirers would wish to be deprived. In the list of Butler's works "God the Known and God the Unknown" follows "Life and Habit," which appeared in 1877, and "Evolution, Old and New," which was published in May, 1879. It is scarcely necessary to point out that the three works are closely akin in subject and treatment, and that "God the Known and God the Unknown" will gain in interest by being considered in relation to its predecessors.

I will show that man has been so far made in the likeness of this Person of God, that He possesses all its essential characteristics, and that it is this God who has called man and all other living forms, whether animals or plants, into existence... And I will show this with so little ambiguity that it shall be perceived not as a phantom or hallucination...-from "Chapter II: Common Ground"Samuel Butler was a vocal apologist for theistic concepts, but this classic essay has been largely unavailable in standalone form since it first appeared as a series of articles in The Examiner from May to July 1879. Here, he decries pantheism; dismisses orthodox theism, which to him denies the physical existence of God to focus only on the spiritual; and goes on to explain his understanding of the "likeness," or physicality, of God, and how it leads to the "certainty" of life after death. This is a vital work for appreciating Butler's other criticisms of scientific rationalism, including his 1879 book Evolution, Old and New.British author SAMUEL BUTLER (1835-1902) is best known for his satire Erehwon.

Excerpt from The Unknown God: Or Inspiration Among Pre-Christian Races In this volume the writer has taken for his special theme the words used by Saint Paul in his sermon on Mars Hill, The Unknown God, words which the great Apostle applied also to the spiritual Zeus of the ancient Greeks. The effort of the writer is to show the ancient belief of mankind in the Unknown God, and that the great Father of all has granted his inspirations to many of very different countries and tribes and races. This volume is in some respects a search for the footprints of the Divine Being on the shifting sands of remote history. The first chapters deal with the Hamitic and Semitic races. Fortunately the latest investigations in the early inscriptions of Egypt Show that there was a period (not the earliest) in which a profound belief in the One God existed in the minds of the scholars and priests of that ancient country. From this field the student is con ducted to the Semitic tribes in the valley of the Euphrates. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

A Penguin Classic Ancient pagan beliefs, the great Greek epics, and the Bible all inform this extraordinary novel by Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck, which occupied him for more than five difficult years. While fulfilling his dead father’s dream of creating a prosperous farm in California, Joseph Wayne comes to believe that a magnificent tree on the farm embodies his father’s spirit. His brothers and their families share in Joseph’s prosperity, and the farm flourishes—until one brother, frightened by Joseph’s pagan belief, kills the tree, allowing disease and famine to descend on the farm. Set in familiar Steinbeck country, To a God Unknown is a mystical tale, exploring one man’s attempt to control the forces of nature and, ultimately, to understand the ways of God and the forces of the unconscious within. This edition features an introduction and notes by Steinbeck scholar Robert DeMott. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.
