Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Supernatural Christianity is the masterpiece of God, the paramount moral and spiritual design, and the crowning glory of the Infinite and Eternal Creator and Maker of all things. Christianity in its essential unity and central energy is supernatural; it is that, or it is a stupendous fraud. The Christian religion, peculiarly separate from other religions, is a system distinguished and dominated by the supernatural, or it is at once an insidious and vexa tious delusion. It deals with God and moral responsi bility, and with the life and souls and destiny of men. It is an orderly arrangement; and a firm, wisely designed compact of supernaturalism as clearly opposed to natur alism and humanism in the Spiritual domain. Its solid facts, its indisputable relations, its sure doctrines given of God, constitute a supernatural fabric of strength and beauty; and its inner life is a supernatural light, a superhuman ﬂame. Otherwise its advocates are impos tors, and its teachers and propagators are weaklings, grossly deceived or deliberate deceivers. There is no middle ground. It is not a case of half-true, half-false. It is God's gift to man, or it is a gigantic falsehood. Its structure and essence are clear to the honest, open vision. Its principles are fixed in the moral and spiritual constitution of the eternal God, and its nature, aim and energies have been demonstrated tens of thousands of times in the relations of God and men.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Science and the Supernatural In the language of Frederic Harrison, one of the foremost positivists of the day, This method turns aside from hypotheses not to be tested by any known logical canon familiar to science, whether the hypothesis claims support from intuition, aspira tion or general plausibility. And, again, this method turns aside from ideal standards which avow them selves to be lawless, which profess to transcend the field of law. We say, life and conduct shall stand for us wholly on a basis of law, and must rest entirely in that region of science, (not physical, but moral and social science, ) where we are free to use, our intelligence in the methods known to us as ih telligible logic, methods which the intellect can analyze. When you confront us with hypotheses however sublime and however affecting, if they can not be stated in terms of the rest of our knowledge, if they are disparate to that world of sequence and sensation which to us is the ultimate base of all our real knowledge, then we shake our heads and turn aside.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Metaphysics of the Supernatural as Illustrated by Descartes There is a tendency on the part of philosophers to aspire to heaven and to' explore heavenly regions. Since heaven has been once for all formed and fixed, the problems of philosophy are always the same. The persistent problems of philosophy reduce themselves to the ques tion of ultimates - the ultimate reality of the world and the ultimate reality of man. This question comes up in philosophy again and again. Only the forms in which it appears are different. They differ with the knowledge, temperament, and surroundings of the philosopher. But no matter in what form this question comes up and what course the road of dialectics takes, philosophers all reach regions that transcend knowledge, and the question being unsolved recurs again.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Supernatural Revelation: Or First Principles of Moral Theology What babblings can be more profane and vain than those of Positivism with its new Supreme Being; or of Agnosticism, which places an algebraical x, the unknowable, on the throne of the universe? What can be more falsely named science than the audacious conjectures which have been of late repeatedly dignified with the name of scientific theories? Such as the con stant generation of the unlike from the unlike, through infinite ages of geological time, before there existed a single man who could witness this prodigious inver sion of the countless experiences of all real science for the last six thousand years? One great duty of Cambridge at this crisis, is in the study of nature to abide stedfastly by the induc tive principles of the philosophy of Bacon and Newton, so well carried out by many Cambridge students of these later times. But this implies the further duty to refrain from that unbridled license of imagination in scientific subjects, which leads many to dignify plausible or even unplausible conjectures with the name of science. Conjectures in science have a great use, but this depends on our never confounding them with proved facts.

The second vision enabled me to examine the seemmg miracles and special providences, which are recorded 'in'the Bible and elsewhere, through the pure medi ums of Nature and Reason.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Idealism and Theology: A Study of Presuppositions In these lectures an attempt is made to show that there isat work, in the seeming chaos of our philosophical thinking, an organising principle which promises to give new life to theology. At present, while religion clings to the supernatural, philosophy seems to deny and theology hesitates. Religion takes refuge in mysticism. Thereupon theology finds courage to approve, and philosophy becomes loftily critical. But no one will venture to say what exactly is the supernatural, and in what sense mysticism is admissible. A principle which the writer believes can be discovered by means of a criticism of philosophical idealism seems to provide an answer to these questions.

Book excerpt: Musaicum Press presents to you an Arthur Machen collection, which has been designed and formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. Arthur Machen (1863-1947) was a Welsh author and mystic of the 1890s and early 20th century. He is best known for his influential supernatural, fantasy, and horror fiction. His novella The Great God Pan has garnered a reputation as a classic of horror (Stephen King has called it "Maybe the best [horror story] in the English language"). Historian of fantastic literature Brian Stableford has suggested that Machen "was the first writer of authentically modern horror stories, and his best works must still be reckoned among the finest products of the genre".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Conduct and the Supernatural: Being the Norrisian Prize Essay, for the Year 1913 The original draft of this Essay was written with a view to the Cambridge Norrisian Prize. The subject chosen by those in authority was "Christian Ethical Ideals and Modern Reactions from Them." In preparing the book for publication it was found necessary to make some additions and to re-write and enlarge certain passages. The Essay remains, however, substantially the same. The writer has had a double purpose before him throughout: first, to examine and criticize certain ethical systems which illustrate the modern reaction against Christian ideals, and, secondly, to offer in apologetic form an argument for the supremacy of the Christian ethic. Considerable attention has been paid to the writings of Friedrich Nietzsche and Mr. Houston Stewart Chamberlain, two of the prophets of modern Teutonic Kultur. The completed manuscript of this book, however, was in the hands of the publishers before the present war broke out; and I have thought it best to let it remain as it was. The bearing of current events upon what has been said in criticism of these and other writers will not be far to seek.
