Excerpt from The Limits of Evolution: And Other Essays Illustrating the Metaphysical Theory of Personal Idealism
Yet such is the unmistakable fact. With this every day Occidental's instinctive preference for personal initiative, responsibility, and credit, I confess myself in strong sympathy; and though from my acquaint ance with the facts I cannot share in his surprise, I am glad of an Opportunity to protest with him against this all-engulfing monism, fatal to our moral freedom even when taking on the plausible form of monistic idealism. Idealistic monism, though in deed a real phiiosophic advance as compared with other monism, is in the last resort irreconcilable with personality. By its unmitigated and immitigable determinism, with its one sole Real Agent, it directly annuls moral agency and personal freedom in all the conscious beings other than its so-called God. Accordingly, it leaves this professed God himself without genuine personality; for his consciousness is void of that recognition and reverence of the personal initiative of other minds which is at once the sign and the test of the true person.

The Limits of Evolution (Classic Reprint)
Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book interrogates the competing ideas and theories generated throughout the history of philosophy by the great minds in the field. The author presents their arguments and analyzes their impact within the context of their times, before introducing their own system of Rational Pluralism, known as Personal Idealism. This theory puts forth a fresh discussion on our common-sense understanding of mind and matter, arguing that they are not two distinct substances but different aspects of a being's nature. The author supports their theory with an in-depth examination of a priori knowledge, showing that the true foundation of a priori cognition is the self-defining consciousness of each mind, and in that very fact, aware of its correlation with a system of other minds. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
