Excerpt from The Theological Review, 1879, Vol. 16: A Quarterly Journal of Religious Thought and Life
Mr. Dean's attack on Secularism as held by Mr. Holyoake, does but afford a convenient motto Introducing a great subject. The new name, Agnosticism, best defines Holyoake's position. He refuses the name Atheist he simply asserts that he knows no adequate proof, and no adequate disproof, of any moral and overruling God. Mr. Dean seems to disallow this intermediate position, and insists that whatever is not Theism is Atheism.
