This demonstrated faith will have nothing in common with the natural religion of the XVIII. century, which was at bottom but a weak and degenerate form of belief in the supernatural. Under the metaphysical garb of Deism we still recognise theological thought. On the contrary the demonstrated faith will have its origin and its justification in positive science.The two words faith and demonstration appear to clash with each other. But the contradiction lies merely on the surface. For we are still concerned with faith since the great majority of men will always have to take on faith the conclusions of positive philosophy. The number of men with sufficient leisure and enou...We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
