4.9/5 (21825 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from The Truths We Live These attitudes of the contemporary mind are unfortunate, and ultimately disastrous. For what we are accustomed to call the great verities are of immense practical significance; a faith in them which takes no account of modern scientific thought will end in inevitable doubt; and, while the agnosticism of science is sound so far as science goes, it is not final, since it happens that the logic of science is not the only logic there is. The difiiculty is that most men of culture tend to think so. For the chief reason for the prevalent skepticism concerning life 's fundamental problems is the Widespread belief that the range of natural science and of human reason are synonymous; that not only what science demon strates is true, but that what it cannot or does not demonstrate is either beyond decision or is thereby disproved. One of the principal aims of this book is to show the utter falsity of this position. No one values the achievements of natural science more than the writer. N 0 one is less desirous of disputing a single scientific fact or law. But he, in common with any one else who has investigated and taught scientific method, is naturally more cautious than is the aver age man either in drawing sweeping conclusions from scientific hypotheses, or in assuming that rea son has had its utmost say when natural science has given its last word. Reason is larger than the reason of that special enterprise called science; it has other methods of proof precisely as cogent asare science 's demonstrations. It is through such a reason that the writer undertakes to prove the truths we live by, -the truths which many men have practically abandoned, not so much because they have thought as because they have not thought enough. Grant if you please that many of the old arguments for the great verities are now foolish, this does not render the great verities themselves foolish, provided there are other reasons, in bar mony with science, that demand them and amply justify them.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
