Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life After Death?: Palinodia More than one friend has pressed me to giv to the world my maturest thoughts concerning a Future Life. I am not so vain as to imagin that anything that I can write will bring this contested question nearer to a close. The contending schools seem to move on different planes, and never to meet the opposit argument. If from unwillingness to giv pain to friends, those who hav thought on both sides keep silence, how shall any approach to Truth be made? To state how I now view the controversy, I seem called, because in my book entitled "Theism" I hav long seen that I was one-sided. I there wrote, less as an inquirer, than as an advocate. Accounting the physical argument to be quite notorious, I omitted to dwell on its real strength. Various counter-arguments I set forth, as probability higher or lower. I believe I never assumed the dogmatic tone, but I heartily labored to make my case good; not indeed because I felt any spiritual and emotional need of it. Only because logically it seemed an important complement to a Theistic creed, I tried to persuade myself of its truth. Perhaps it is right to make a further personal statement. In reading Cicero and Plato in early days, I always regarded as trash Plato´s arguments for immortality, as, I make no doubt, Cicero himself did. Therefor, as soon as I ceased to trust the scriptures of the New Testament as a divine revelation, my acceptance of a Future Life as a dogma at once fell away.
