Excerpt from Philosophy and Religion: Six Lectures Delivered at CambridgeTheology is less a single science than an ency clopeedia of sciences', indeed all the sciences which have to do with man have a better right to be called theological than anthr0pological, though the man it studies is not simply an individual but a race. Its way of viewing man is indeed characteristic from this have come some of its brighter ideals and some of its darkest dreams. The ideals are all either ethical or social, and would make of earth a heaven, creating fraternity amongst men and forming all states into a goodly sisterhood, the dreams may be represented by doctrines which concern sin on the one side and the will of God on the other. But even this will cannot make sin luminous, for were it made radiant with grace, it would cease to be sin.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
