Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heresies or Agnostic Theism, Ethics, Sociology, and Metaphysics, Vol. 1 This volume may be considered, to some extent, an introduction to the main theses of Heresies, which constitute a synthesis from the demonstrations of modern science to fresh statements of first principles in religion, ethics, sociology, and metaphysics. The motive impelling the author to deal with the pro nouncements of other people preliminarily to advanc ing his own doctrines is the conviction that the true aim of intellectualism is not so much the extirpation of wrong belief, as the establishment of right prin ciple. Given the right principle, the author has no fear as to the right belief; indeed, he hopes to de monstrate that belief, in itself, is always right. What, in these days, is wrong in connection with belief is, that a multitude of spurious manifestations simu lating it are accepted as the genuine thing, with the consequence that the great corroding factor in modern civilisation is intellectual dishonesty.
