Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Volitional Element in Knowledge and Belief: And Other Essays in Philosophy and Religion This volume of essays is in general in line with the philosophic principles of the late Dr. Borden P. Bowne. The very title of the essay which gives the book its name, "The Volitional Element in Knowledge and Belief," would indicate kinship with the Bowne philosophy. Dr. Bowne possessed in a singular degree the power of rousing his followers to think on their own account and to carry out his principles in applying his implications in fields beyond the strictly philosophical. He used to feel that his philosophy had significance for all departments of Christian thinking and practice. If he had lived he would have been glad to see the use which Dean Grover has made of one of his fundamental conceptions, namely, the significance of will for Christian belief. We are coming to see in these latter days that the Christian system does not depend for its chief basis upon formal argument. This does not mean that the formal arguments for Christianity are not better than the formal arguments against Christianity. Christianity is not to be overthrown by argument. On the other hand, however, it is not to find its firmest foundation in argument. Strict argument leaves us many times with a drawn battle.
