Natural Theology in the Nineteenth Century (Classic Reprint) by James Maclaren Pdf

Excerpt from Natural Theology in the Nineteenth Century Mr. Darwin, not on account of his views as to evolution, but because of the valuable additions which, in the course of his labours on that subject, he has made to our know ledge of Natural History, and in deference to the position which he holds in the scientific world. But any one acquainted with the University of Cambridge forty years ago, will be aware that, at that time, a far greater claim than that which Mr. Darwin now has for the distinction, would have utterly failed to obtain it for him, if coupled with the views which he holds as to evolution.

Natural Theology in the Nineteenth Century by James Maclaren Pdf

Excerpt from Natural Theology in the Nineteenth Century Paley thought it necessary to apologize for his 'Natural Theology.' He says it will be urged that his readers leave off where they began; that they never doubted the existence of a God; and that it does not appear what is gained by researches upon a subject of which no proofs were wanted. But, he says, occurrences will arise to try the firmness of our most habitual opinions; and upon these occasions it is matter of incalculable use to feel our foundation; to find a support in argument for what we had taken up upon authority.

Manual of Natural Theology (Classic Reprint) by George Park Fisher Pdf

Excerpt from Manual of Natural Theology Modern views of Evolution of necessity modify the method of dealing with the evidences of The ism. But the new scientific doctrine, so far as it can be said to have established itself in the creed of Naturalists of highest repute, has the effect, I am persuaded, to fortify rather than to weaken the argument of design.

Principles of Natural Theology (Classic Reprint) by George Hayward Joyce Pdf

Excerpt from Principles of Natural Theology It follows from what we have said that in the Scholastic philosophy Natural Theology is no um essential adjunct, no mere afterthought, but a substantive and vital part of the system, without which it would be radically incomplete. It claims to establish from assured first principles the exist ence of'a Supreme Being, distinct from the finite and mutable things of experience. It maintains, further, that though the limitations of the human intellect render all our knowledge of Him inade quate, we are not wholly ignorant of His nature. There are certain attributes which can be affirmed of Him with certainty, though they are His in a manner more 'perfect than any which we can imagine. Above all, He is' intelligent and free, and therefore possessed of personality. In Him it finds the source and origin of all finite beings, and the final cause in view of which such beings exist.

A New Natural Theology by J. Morris Pdf

Excerpt from A New Natural Theology: Based Upon the Doctrine of Evolution Dear Dr. Sanday, My attention to the subject of Natural Theology has been chiefly due to the encouragement I received from you, when many years ago, after a sermon preached in the Chapel of Bishop Hatfield's Hall, you expressed a desire to hear more from me on the subject of Darwinism in relation to Theology. And the unfailing sympathy and kindness you have shown towards me throughout the years in which, amid many distractions, this work has slowly grown and reached completion - in how imperfect a form I am only too conscious - moves me to ask you to permit your name to be associated with it, and to accept it from me as an expression of my gratitude. I have also to thank you, and Dr. Robertson, your successor at Durham, for the cheerful readiness with which, under the pressure of other engagements, you undertook to read the proof sheets; and for the many valuable suggestions which you and Dr. Robertson have made.

Natural Theology by William Paley Pdf

William Paley (1743-1805) argues for the existence of God as the intelligent creator of the world in this, his last book, published in 1802. He builds on early modern natural theology including the works of John Ray, William Derham, and Bernard Nieuwentyt, and most of his examples are taken from medicine and natural history. Paley uses analogy and metaphors, including a particularly well-written version of the 'watchmaker analogy', to prove that the world is designed and sustained by God. This sixth edition also contains a detailed bibliography, appendices on Paley's courses, and background notes on key figures. It was an influential best-seller throughout the nineteenth century, read by theologians and scientists alike, and reprinted in cheap editions for the middle classes. It inspired many nineteenth-century works on natural theology, including the Bridgewater Treatises (which also appear in this series), and is a landmark of Western thought.
