Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frederic Palmer's work The Winning of Immortality is a religious look at the concept of afterlife. Republished here by Forgotten books, the author, a biblical scholar, presents an argument for the existence of life after death. Tracing the concept of an afterlife from early Hebrew history to Christian development to modern times, this is a book for both believers as well as non-believers that are interested in hearing an argument contrary to their beliefs. The book leans heavily on the text of The Bible for evidence, however the author does make note of the limitations of this approach. "In endeavouring then to learn of the condition of men after death," Palmer states, "We cannot appeal to 'what the Bible says' as if it were an utterance one and definite." Thus, the book begins by tracing the development of the concept of an afterlife through both the Old Testament and the New Testament, highlighting the changes in this doctrine over time. Later chapters abandon the examination of The Bible in order to make philosophical arguments for the existence of an afterlife. The author also examines the concept of immortality in other religions and in different periods in history, highlighting the beliefs of groups such as the Muslims and the Vikings. The book concludes with a discussion of the exclusive nature of immortality, and asks the question "Is there an afterlife for non-believers?" A reader's enjoyment of this book may depend on where they fall on the issue of an afterlife and their religious beliefs. This book was written by a Christian and seems to be aimed at a primarily Christian audience. Little of the evidence presented within is overly compelling, and it is doubtful that this text would change the mind of any non-believer. However, somebody who believes in an afterlife may find this book to be reaffirming and illuminating, and for these readers The Winning of Immortality is recommended.

I have also had the benefit of further criticisms by scholars familiar with the subject, among which mention should be made Of the articles contributed by Professor C.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reconciliation of Religion and Science: Being Essays on Immortality Eeing that more than half the differences of opinion in philosophy and theology are due to the use of words in different senses, it may be well to define in what sense the words religion and science are used in this volume. It is, I may say, the popular, ordinary, and quite intelligible sense which they commonly bear - indeed, in my opinion, the general public has often a better reason for, and more method in, its use of language than the wise men who are for ever setting it to rights. Science is simply the process by which mankind derives knowledge from reason ing about facts. (occasionally I may have used the word in its more restricted sense of natural science - 21a, that department of knowledge which deals with physical facts.) Religion is the word that describes the relations of man with the power or being whom we call God. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This faith was, in fact, one Of the chief elements in the Egyptian religion, - the element best known to us through the endless cemeteries which fill the desert from one end Of Egypt to the other, and through the funerary inscriptions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Faith and Immortality: A Study of the Christian, Doctrine of the Life to Come Great events in history have always had a profound effect on the development of religious as well as philosophical thought; and there can be no doubt that the present war, which is shaking the fabric of modern civilisation to its foundations, will issue in many as yet undreamt-of changes of perspective and emphasis in Theology. It is too soon to forecast the issue in many directions; but already many pressing problems are demanding fresh treatment. Among these none is more urgent than the question of human destiny in the world to come. Among the reasons for the decay of the influence of the Christian pulpit during the past generation, one is undoubtedly the fact that the doctrine of immortality has so largely lost its place at the heart of the Christian message. Preachers nowadays do not concern themselves so much with what happens after death as with what happens to us here and now. The pains of Hell, the bliss of Heaven, the penalties and rewards which await us in the Unseen, have largely disappeared from amongst the incentives and warnings of the religious life, nor have any other taken their place.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Immortality: A Study of Belief and Earlier Addresses Little by little, week by week, Dr. Clarke laid before us his whole thought, quite honestly and directly, but so quietly and simply and reasonably that there was no place for surprise or alarm; only a steadily growing sense of light, of freedom, of well-being. Never was preaching more perfectly expressive of the preacher. The singleness of aim, the refusal to be distracted by non essentials, the unswerving quest of reality, the boundless comprehension, the unfailing sympathy, the invincible peace, which were the notes of every sermon, were the qualities of the man. Even the brief, pregnant sentences that linger in one's memory after all the years have his stamp upon them. Religion is the humble life of a filial soul with the good God. God's thought of us is the steady thought Of love and wisdom. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life Beyond Life: A Study of Immortality This little book on Immortality is frankly from the standpoint of a Chris tian believer, whose chief interest is in theology. But it has genuine sympathy and respect for the philosopher and the scientist who know not whether to look for an abiding city or to fold their hands for a final rest. These pages may pos sibly seem unfair to the exact attitude which distinguished philosophers and sci entists would maintain. But perhaps, should they look into them, they will forgive misrepresentation, because un intentional, and because to see truth whole is a task worth many blunders, if to attempt it may become a habit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Faith and Immortality The following essays of Father George Tyrrell are drawn, for the most part, from notebooks and unpublished material. It was his habit, as has been mentioned elsewhere, to keep what he called a "journal" of spiritual and philosophical jottings - day by day he thus noted down any thoughts that occurred to him; and the result was, sometimes a series of detached reflections, such as we find in Nova et Vetera, or Oil and Wine, sometimes a consecutive work, such as Lex Credendi, which was, to a great extent, drawn from such jottings. The "Journal," of which a large portion is first published in these pages, was written during the course of the year 1904, while its author was yet a member of the Society of Jesus, but the collection contains also a good deal of matter drawn from a later, and less elaborated notebook, written during the year 1906, in the months succeeding his rupture with the Society, and particularly during the period of his wanderings in France. The "Journal" of 1904 is undoubtedly the incomplete scheme of a definite work; perhaps one of the most important works that its author ever planned.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dionysos and Immortality: The Greek Faith in Immortality as Affected by the Rise of Individualism As part of the common stock of primitive human thought the Greek inherited the natural consciousness for being as absolute, as unbounded by non-being. To forget is the one gate of annulment The common human belief in the shadowy second-self, revealed, it may well be, in the experiences of sleep and dreams, swoons and ecstasies, was also his belief, and to him man was body and soul When a man dies, the soul issues forth from the body to seek other residence. And not man's life alone is thus dual; all life, of beast, of tree, of the river current, of the fountain, of the wind and the storm-cloud, is made up of body and soul For the primitive Greek as for the primitive man, there was no other way in which to think of life.
