Synopsis

Excerpt from What May I Hope? An Inquiry Into the Sources and Reasonableness, of the Hopes of Humanity, Especially, the Social and Religious

The Dialogues of Aristotle's master, the ever illustrious Plato, were, so far as their method is concerned, built upon the hypothesis that all the processes of human thought, which result in the conceptions and morally influential ideas of human nature, need a critical examination in order to distinguish between the real knowl edge and the pretentious and false opinions which are embodied in them.

Before, during, and after the lives of these two immortals, every phase of scepticism and agnosticism was rife in Greece and in her colo nies;' and the arguments by which the views destructive of the very foundations of science were supported, have received no important additions whatever from the mouths and pens of their modern followers.
