Excerpt from Moral Values and the Idea of God: The Gifford Lectures, Delivered in the University of Aberdeen in 1914 and 1915 The lectures of which the book consists were delivered in the University of Aberdeen in the summer terms of 1914 and 191 5. Although nearly a year elapsed between the tenth lecture and the eleventh, the whole is intended to be a continuous argument. In carrying out this argu ment, no attempt has been made to give a critical survey of contemporary thinking on the topics which arise for discussion. To have done so would have been to extend unduly the length of the book. And a survey of this kind has now been rendered unnecessary by the work of my friend and predecessor in the Gifford Lectureship, Professor pringle-pattison. Through criticism of recent philosophy he has elicited a view akin to that which I have reached in another way. Both the similarity and the difference are indicated by the title of my book.
