Excerpt from The Religious Sentiments of the Human Mind A person of ordinary intelligence would probably resent the imputation that he does not know the meaning of the term Religion; but, should he seriously ask himself the question placed at the head this chapter, he would be surprised to find how much difficulty an act and adequate answer involves. He will first think of the various systems and organisations really or nominally of a religious character, and perhaps content himself with an enumeration or an ample. If more closely pressed he may find himself greatly at a loss, and indeed may be forced to take refuge in that well-known characterisation of the Holy Ghost by an English prelate as 'a sort a something.' For, while there will be no lack of declarations, heterogeneous and contradictory as they may be, as to what a religious man or woman should believe or do, he will find much less instruction as to what religion essentially is, and what he does find will not be of a satisfactory character, since it almost invariably is en in the interest of some system or some organised body. Moreover, in the efforts which his own intelligence may make, a person will be much perplexed from a proneness of his own mind to confuse products of religion, its incidents and accidents, with its ultimate languishing characteristics. When, for instance, we speak of the christian religion we have in mind a social organisation, comprising a community of organised lies united by certain enunciated principles and by certain declared aims. But this society is not the christian religion, but rather a development of it. The religion makes the society. If there were religion there would be no church. Hence we cannot say that christian church is the christian religion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Religious Sentiment is a philosophical work by Daniel G. Brinton. Brinton was an American surgeon, historian, archaeologist and ethnologist, here delving into to role of religion and morality within numerous other social constructs. Excerpt: "Mythology, since it began to receive a scientific handling at all, has been treated as a subordinate branch of history or of ethnology. The "science of religion," as we know it in the works of Burnouf, Müller, and others, is a comparison of systems of worship in their historic development. The deeper inquiry as to what in the mind of man gave birth to religion in any of its forms, what spirit breathed and is ever breathing life into these dry bones, this, the final and highest question of all, has had but passing or prejudiced attention. To its investigation this book is devoted."

Excerpt from Religious Thought and Heresy in the Middle Ages It cannot be said that the present study warrants any very bright hopes for the immediate future of mankind but it will serve to illustrate some permanent phases and tendencies of the human mind, some fundamental hopes and beliefs which no perfectly organized secular State can satisfy or abolish.

Excerpt from The Psalmist and the Scientist, or Modern Value of the Religious Sentiment I have so fully indicated my purpose in the body of this work that a preface is almost superfluous. I design to inquire whether the religious sentiment of the past has been superannuated or rendered obsolete by the modern conception of nature. I have expressed respectively these seemingly opposite standpoints by the title, 'The Psalmist and the Scientist.' Science is confessedly the author of the modern conception of nature; the Book of Psalms is admittedly the repository of the religious sentiment in its largest and most comprehensive form. Of course it will be understood that the Psalms are here used not as an authority but as a type; the hymns of the Rig Veda would have served my purpose equally well if they had expressed the religious sentiment with equal catholicity.

Excerpt from Unity in Variety: A Series of Arguments Based on the Divine Workmanship in Our Planet, the Constitution of the Human Mind, and the Inspired History of Religion T is not by any means encouraging to an Au thor to feel that he is bestowing both time and labor upon an unpopular subject. This is especially depressing when he knows, before he sits down to write, that many of his readers will have but little sympathy with the principle which it is his object to discuss.

Excerpt from Mind and Heart in Religion, or Judaism and Christianity: A Heart's Experience and a Popular Research Into the True Religion of the Bible I must yet guard myself against a misunderstanding, as if I had any intention to write against the people to which I belong, and of which I am proud. This book has nothing to do with men, but with their religion. I fully appreciate the character of my people as mm. I love my people, while I see their religious error.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The acclaimed social psychologist challenges conventional thinking about morality, politics, and religion in a way that speaks to conservatives and liberals alike—a “landmark contribution to humanity’s understanding of itself” (The New York Times Book Review). Drawing on his twenty-five years of groundbreaking research on moral psychology, Jonathan Haidt shows how moral judgments arise not from reason but from gut feelings. He shows why liberals, conservatives, and libertarians have such different intuitions about right and wrong, and he shows why each side is actually right about many of its central concerns. In this subtle yet accessible book, Haidt gives you the key to understanding the miracle of human cooperation, as well as the curse of our eternal divisions and conflicts. If you’re ready to trade in anger for understanding, read The Righteous Mind.

Excerpt from The Christian Mind I have tried in the following pages to draw a distinction between general spirituality, and the specific Christian spirituality, which is based on the practical assimilation by our minds of the doctrine of the Incarnation. The purpose of the book is, of course, more of the nature of a philosophy of the Christian religion, than of a hortatory, or preceptive character.

Excerpt from Foundations of Religion in the Mind and Heart of Man Theological controversy, in the ordinary sense of the word, has in these pages been as much as possible avoided. A layman is neither qualified, nor disposed to thread the interminable maze. But, on the other hand, he is more at liberty than a clergyman of any Church or Sect can be, or ought to be, to say all, and exactly what he thinks. Some readers may complain, that positive conclusions have not been pushed further. But the object has been to labour on common ground, especially for the benefit of the young and uninstructed (for whom alone the author presumes to write), by showing in a popular manner, on how broad, solid, and immovable a foundation religious Faith, Hope, and Worship repose to cheer and fortify sincere and anxious hearts, whatever form of the Christian religion they may have embraced. It is plain, that this end must have been entirely frustrated, had the narrow tenets or interests of any particular Church, sect, or party, been directly or indirectly advocated or attacked.

Excerpt from The Non-Religion of the Future: A Sociological Study, Tr, From the French The definition which has perhaps been most widely adopted of late years, with divers modifications by Strauss, by Pfleiderer, by Lotze, and by M. Reville, is that of Schleier macher. According to him, the essence of religion consists in the feeling that we all have of our own absolute dependence. The powers in respect to which this dependence is felt we call divinities. On the other hand, according to Feuerbach, the origin, nay the essence even of religion is desire: if man possessed no needs, no desires, he would possess no gods. If grief and evil did not exist, says Hartmann later on, there would be no religion the gods, even the gods of history, are no more than the powers to whom man looks for what he does not possess, and wants, to whom he looks for relief, for salva tion, for happiness. The respective definitions of Schleier macher and Feuerbach, taken separately, are incomplete it is at least necessary, as Strauss suggests, to superpose them. The religious sentiment is primarily, no doubt, a feeling of dependence; but this feeling of dependence, really to give birth to religion, must provoke in one a reaction - a desire of deliverance. To feel one's own weakness; to be conscious of limitations of all sorts which bound one's life, and then to desire to augment one's power over one's self and over the material universe; to enlarge one's sphere of action; to attain once more to a comparative independence in face of the necessities of every kind which hem one in - such is the course of the human mind in the presence of the universe.

Waardenburg’s magisterial essay traces the rise and development of the academic study of religion from the mid-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century, outlining the establishment of the discipline, its connections with other fields, religion as a subject of research, and perspectives on a phenomenological study of religion. Futhermore a second part comprises an anthology of texts from 41 scholars whose work was programmatic in the evolution of the academic study of religion. Each chapter presents a particular approach, theory, and method relevant to the study of religion. The pieces selected for this volume were taken from the discipline of religious studies as well as from related fields, such as anthropology, sociology, and psychology, to name a few.
