Excerpt from The Creator, and What We May Know of the Method of Creation: The Fernley Lecture
In this lies the insatiable desire of mind to peer into the origin of, and reason for, the existence of this universe. Deepening knowledge brings broader light and expanding mystery, but this only quickens the intellectual purpose of the race to seek to solve the problem, why we are circled with the Splendid phenomena of heaven and earth, and possessed of the mystery of ourselves?

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fundamental question of creation and the nature of the universe, a topic that has captivated thinkers throughout history. The author grapples with the enduring concept of causality, exploring how our consciousness compels us to seek a cause for every phenomenon. He challenges the idea that scientific understanding alone can explain the origin and intricacies of the universe, suggesting that scientific inquiry, while essential, ultimately leads to a deeper philosophical question about the existence of a primordial cause. The book skillfully navigates the complexities of various philosophical viewpoints, including materialism, idealism, and the mechanistic philosophy of Herbert Spencer. The author expertly examines the limitations of these approaches, arguing that they often fail to address the inherent mystery of creation and the profound implications of our own consciousness. This book offers a thought-provoking and engaging exploration of the age-old question of creation, reminding us that even as scientific knowledge expands, the ultimate mysteries of existence continue to inspire profound contemplation and awe.
