Synopsis
Excerpt from Alphabet of Natural Theology, for the Use of Beginners
Revealed or Christian Theology or, as it is con fined to facts and reasonings derived from examining the works' of creation, termed Natural Theology. It is the latter only of which it is proposed to treat in this Alphabet.
It may be well to remark, however, that it is not always possible to separate Natural Theology from Christian Theology, in consequence of what Lord Bacon terms Idols of the Den or peculiar modes Of thinking produced by early education and by par ticular courses of reading. From these causes many authors, when discussing the subjects of Natural Theo logy, reason unfairly, inasmuch as they pretend to draw their materials from' the works of creation; whereas they indirectly, and it may be unconsciously, derive certain notions Of God from the Bible, and endeavour to make their arguments from natural sources coincide with these notions. In the same way, it Is common to see a theorist build up a goodly fabric of fancies, to'the support of which he gathers all sorts of facts Suited to his purpose, e'mbellishing some, and Shearing others of their fair proportions when they will not square with his views.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a thoughtful examination of the existence and nature of God through natural theology, the study of God revealed through the wonders of nature. The author takes the reader on an intellectual journey, starting from the infant's concept of God as a human-like figure and arriving at the more profound arguments put forth by philosophers and theologians.
