Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The belief in immortality precedes modern science in human experience. It means more in the spiritual life and progress of the race. The limitation of physical science has been that in the enthusiasm of its discoveries it has so closed the material and forces of the universe as to exclude immortality. We have made a great deal of the service of science to theology, but here we see the debt being more than paid by the scientific theologian who thinks evolutionary ideas through and helps science to see itself in some of its deeper and larger aspects. Dr. Smyth starts from the soul's sense of its own survival value. He shows how progressing science supports this conviction in its new Conception of the soul as a center and source of energy. The question of immortality becomes, therefore, not whether the soul entity of the Older thought can maintain its existence, but whether an integrated living energy can cease to be. The writer shows how the soul shapes and uses matter in continuous embodiment. From these proved facts of continuity and embodiment he goes on to the greater fact of a continuing process of embodiment unbroken by death because involved in the very nature of life as life is revealed by science. One excellence in the book is the naturalness and even unconsciousness with which its thought passes from the scientific to the spiritual, blending them into one as in the writer's mind science and spiritual truth make one seamless garment clothing the soul in immortality. The book is compressed thought abounding in suggestion, and will repay many readings. It is as complete a statement in small compass of the rational and spiritual faith in immortality as has appeared. -Yale Divinity News, Vol. 5 [1908]

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can we who have been touched by the scientific, intellectual, and experimental revolutions of modern and contemporary times still believe with and degree of coherence and consistency that we as individual persons are immortal. Indeed, is there even good cause to hope that we are? In examining the present relationship of reason to faith, can we find justifying reasons for faith? These are the central questions in Self, God, and Immortality, a compelling exercise in philosophical theology. Drawing upon the works of William James and the principles of American Pragmatism, Eugene Fontinell extrapolates carefully from "data given in experience" to a model of the cosmic process open to the idea that individual identity may survive bodily dissolution. Presupposing that the possibility of personal immortality has been established in the first part, the second part of the essay is concerned with desirability. Here, Fontinell shows that, far from diverting attention and energies from the crucial tasks confronting us here and now, such belief can be energizing and life enhancing. The wider importance of Self, God, and Immortality lies in its pressing both immortality-believers and terminality-believers to explore both the metaphysical presuppositions and the lived consequences of their beliefs. It is the author's expressed hope that such explorations, rather than impeding, will stimulate co-operative efforts to create a richer and more humane community.

This book was released on 2015-06-05 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Belief in God and Immortality a Psychological, Anthropological, and Statistical Study God, the soul, and immortality constitute, according to general opinion, the great framework of religion. In an earlier book I have considered the origin, the nature, the function, and the future of the belief in what I have called "personal" gods. The present volume is a similar study of the belief in personal immortality. Chapters one to four treat of the origin, the nature, and the function of this belief. They show in particular that two quite different conceptions of personal immortality have been successively elaborated; and that the modern conception is not a growth from the primary belief, but an independent creation, differing radically from it in point of origin, in nature, and in function. Whereas the primary belief was forced upon men irrespective of their wishes as an unavoidable interpretation of certain patent facts (chiefly the apparition of deceased persons in dreams and in visions), the modern belief was born of a desire for the realization of ideals. The first came to point to an exclusively wretched existence, and prompted men merely to guard against the possible danger to them arising from ghosts; the second contemplated from the first endless continuation in a state of completed or increased perfection, and incited the living to ceaseless efforts in order to make themselves fir for that blessed consummation.
