Abstract
IT is not the province of this journal to deal with theological questions; at the same time, the one discussed in this volume is in such close relation with science, and of such universal interest, that a brief sketch of Dr. Dallinger's argument may be permitted. He deals with a question which takes precedence of those sundering Churches,—one which may briefly be stated thus. Have the recent advances in physical and biological science placed the Theist in an unreasonable position? Obviously this is a fundamental question. If the answer be in the affirmative, all investigations into the minutiae of theology are less than the shadows of a shade.
The Creator, and what we may know of the Method of Creation.
The Fernley Lecture of 1887. By W. H. Dallinger. (London: T. Woolmer, 1887.)
