The Study Of Science Favourable To Religion A Lecture Etc

'The Relations Between Religion and Science' is a collection of eight lectures by Frederick Temple, exploring the relationship between scientific and religious beliefs. In the first lecture, Temple examines the postulate of science, tracing it back to the observation of human will and the increasing generality of the postulate. In the second lecture, Temple explores the origin and nature of religious belief, discussing the spiritual faculty as the recipient of revelation. The subsequent lectures address apparent conflicts between science and religion on free will, the doctrine of evolution, revelation as the means of developing and completing spiritual knowledge, and the claim to supernatural power. Temple concludes that the moral law rests on itself, and unity is found not in the physical world, but in the physical and moral combined. This book provides a compelling exploration of the complex relationship between religion and science.
