Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Battle of the Standpoints: The Old Testament and the Higher Criticism The most serious intellectual struggles of to-day, I repeat, are battles over standpoints. Trace, that is to say, the stupendous, the apparently irreconcilable, divisions among religious thinkers of every name to their origin, and these divisions show themselves to originate in differences of view as to the source of human knowledge of the Divine. The Rationalist, for example, differs from the Mystic, the Protestant from the Romanist, the Theist from the Agnostic, and, not to multiply instances, the Buddhist from the Mahometan; nevertheless, pursue these ramifying branches of opinion to their root, and they are all seen to proceed from initial differences of view as to the source of revelation. Indeed, men of diverse creeds are mostly what they are, and mostly believe what they do, because of fundamental differences of view; some finding a solid foundation, as they think, for their religious convictions in an infallible man, and some in an infallible church, and some in an infallible book, and some in infallible reason, and some in an infallible spiritual insight, and some in a skilfully concocted compound of these elementary infallibilities. To blink these divergences of principle is becoming, in the controversial atmosphere of our time, increasingly difficult. Hence the Battle of the Standpoints. Such a battle is inevitable.
