Collected Essays, Volume V: Science and Christian Tradition: Essays
Huxley, Thomas Henry
Agnosticism; Miracles; Religion and science
This volume contains the ripest fruit of the author's varied
studies along the several cognate lines of evidence which
converge with special power in recent times to shed light
upon the foundations of Christianity. Among the subjects
discussed are Limits of Scientific Thought, Paradoxes of
Science, God and Nature, Darwinism and Design, Mediate
Miracles, Beyond Reasonable Doubt, The Newly Discovered
External Evidences, The Evidence of Textual Criticism,
Internal Evidence of the Early Date of the Gospel, and
Positive Results of the Cumulative Evidence. These chapters
are an elaboration of the Lowell Institute Lectures
delivered in Boston in 1896.
