Product Description
With the general dissatisfaction with idealism, and in our unclear efforts to win elsewhere a positive groundwork for religion, Mr. Hocking found the sufficient warrant for such a study as this book undertakes. it inquires what, in terms of experience, its God means and has meant to mankind (for surely religion rises out of experience and pays back into it again): and it proposes, by aid of the labors of all co-workers, critics and criticized alike, to find the foundations of this religion, whether within reason or beyond. Contents: religion as seen in its effects; religious feeling and religious theory; the need of God; how men know God; worship and the mystics; fruits of religion.
