Excerpt from The Solving of the World-Riddle, or the Rational Grounds of Theism: The Metaphysics of the Subject Clarified, and in a Nutshell
If it is objected that there is no need Of a reasoned doctrine of God, inasmuch as the whole matter is intuitional, I reply, even so; for the child-like and the simple-hearted. But those who are eu snared by the sophistications of Naturalism do need to be shown the grounds for better conclu sions. Just that this little booklet tries to furnish.
The positions herein stated make no claim to originality, except in the simplified form of state ment. The positions themselves are substantially those Of the late Prof. Borden P. Bowne of Boston University, and corroborated by kindred thinkers like Dr. A. H. Strong, Profs. Rudolf Eucken, J. W. Buckham, J. H. Snowden, and many others. The writer was called for a'brief season to deal with the questions involved, with a class Of elec tives in Rochester Theological Seminary, at the earnest solicitation of president-emeritus Augustus H. Strong, D.D., LL.D. The line Of work proved so intellectually stimulating, and so assuring to theistic faith, that the subject has been pursued ever since, and especially while resident in Ger many, and in further preparation to deal in later travels in Asia with typical forms Of the Oriental mind. For such values as are embraced in the studies themselves, they are now committed to the public, in this form.
