Book excerpt: Excerpt from Natural Theology, Vol. 2: Or Evidences of the Existence and Attributes of the Deity; Collected From the Appearances of Nature There are glands in the skin of birds for the secretion of oil, as being important for the support of the feathers. Beside these each feather appears to be supplied with oily matter from the point of the skin where it is inserted. But the quantity of oil ne cessary for rendering them impenetrable to water is furnished by the oil glands here mentioned, situated on the sacrum, which are particularly large in wading and aquatic birds, and they pour out their 011 by two fissure-like openings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Natural Theology, Vol. 2: Or Evidences of the Existence and Attributes of the Deity; Collected From the Appearances of Nature We have already considered relation, and under different views; but it was the relation of parts to parts, of the parts of an animal to other parts of the same animal, or of another individual of the same species. But the bodies of animals hold, in their constitution and properties, a close and important relation to natures altogether external to their own: to inanimate substances, and to the specific qualities of these; e.g., they hold a strict relation to the elements by which they are surrounded. I. Can it be doubted, whether the wings of birds bear a relation to air, and the fins of fish to water? They are instruments of motion severally suited to the properties of the medium in which the motion is to be performed; which properties are different. Was not this difference contemplated when the instruments were differently constituted? II. The structure of the animal ear depends for its use not simply upon being surrounded by a fluid, but upon the specific nature of that fluid. Every fluid would not serve: its particles must repel one another; it must form an elastic medium: for it is by the successive pulses of such a medium that the undulations excited by the surrounding body are carried to the organ; that a communication is formed between the object and the sense; which must be done, before the internal machinery of the ear, subtile as it is, can act at all.

Book Synopsis Reality: Volume 1-Natural Theology by : Kevin of Our Lady of Sorrows
Download or read book Reality: Volume 1-Natural Theology written by Kevin of Our Lady of Sorrows and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-17 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Reality Series aims to be a presentation and defense of the principal philosophical and theological truths of Scholastic Catholicism. The Series begins with natural theology which is the branch of philosophy that reasons about God without dependence upon faith and divine revelation. Instead of divine revelation, natural theology uses our natural intellectual faculties and creation. This book aims to be a brief treatise on natural theology covering the existence of God, our natural knowledge of Him, and the Divine Attributes. Included are key metaphysical ideas that underpin Scholastic natural theology. This book is written primarily for mid-level intellectuals; specifically, seminarians, master's students and priests. However, no prior philosophical training is assumed. For this reason, those who are interested in natural theology, but do not have any formal training, will be able to glean a fair amount from the text. Lastly, this volume will form part of the foundation for later volumes in the Reality Series on metaphysics, ethics, supernatural theology and moral/spiritual theology.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Natural Theology written by Russell Re Manning and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-01-17 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Natural Theology is the first collection to consider the full breadth of natural theology from both historical and contemporary perspectives and to bring together leading scholars to offer accessible high-level accounts of the major themes. The volume embodies and develops the recent revival of interest in natural theology as a topic of serious critical engagement. Frequently misunderstood or polemicized, natural theology is an under-studied yet persistent and pervasive presence throughout the history of thought about ultimate reality - from the classical Greek theology of the philosophers to twenty-first-century debates in science and religion. Of interest to students and scholars from a wide range of disciplines, this authoritative handbook draws on the very best of contemporary scholarship to present a critical overview of the subject area. Thirty-eight new essays trace the transformations of natural theology in different historical and religious contexts, the place of natural theology in different philosophical traditions and diverse scientific disciplines, and the various cultural and aesthetic approaches to natural theology to reveal a rich seam of multi-faceted theological reflection rooted in human nature and the environments within which we find ourselves.

Book Synopsis Natural Theology by : Geerhardus Vos
Download or read book Natural Theology written by Geerhardus Vos and published by Reformation Heritage Books. This book was released on 2022-03-11 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biblical and natural theology may not appear to mix, but the two actually do belong together. Vos’s reputation as the father of contemporary biblical theology is not negated by his earlier teaching of natural theology, appearing here for the first time in English. Gathered from source material found in the Heritage Hall archives at Calvin Seminary and University, these are the earliest notes of Vos’s lectures on natural theology. They demonstrate his understanding of Reformed orthodox approaches as well as extensive knowledge of contemporary developments in the subject. The present volume could be regarded as, and may have formed, a partial introduction to Reformed Dogmatics since it lacks a prolegomenon and because Natural Theology discusses religion and the proofs for the existence of God.

CHAPTER VI. On the Capacities of the World for making a virtuous Species happy; and the Argument deduciblefrom this, both for the Character of God, and the Immortality of Man. 1. We shall now attempt to unfold the most general and comprehensive of all our adaptations; and which we at the same time think the most decisive of any in establishing the righteousness of the divine character. 2. We have already stated the distinction between the theology of those, who would make the divine goodness consist of all moral excellence; and of those, who would make it consist of benevolence alone. Attempts have been made to simplify the science of morals, by the reduction of its various duties or obligations into one element--as when it is alleged, that the virtuousness of every separate morality is reducible into benevolence, which is regarded as the central, or as the great master and generic virtue that is comprehensive of them all. There is a theoretic beauty in this imagination--yet it cannot be satisfactorily established, by all our powers of moral or mental analysis. We cannot rid ourselves of the obstinate impression, that there is a distinct and native virt.uousness, both in truth and in justice, apart from their subserviency to the good of men; and accordingly, in the ethical systems of all our most orthodox expounders, they are done separate homage to--as virtues standing forth in their own independent character, and having their own independent claims both on the reverence and observation of mankind. Now, akin with this attempt to generalize the whole of virtue into one single morality, is the...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian natural theology is founded on the proper coordination of Scripture and the created world, what was once called "The Two Books" of God. Carrying forward the work he began in The World in the Shadow of God, Radner here reflects on the way that Scripture's creative relationship with temporal experience--ordering history rather than being ordered by history--opens up the natural world to its essential Scriptural meaning. Like the earlier volume, poetic description is offered as a primary vehicle for doing natural theology, which is shown to proceed according to the figural shape of the Bible's own description of the world.
