VI. PITFALLS OF PHILOSOPHY. THE Theism which Dr. Martineau's argument has now established has been reached by two parallel roads the one traced from the prin- ciple of Causality, the other cut along the higher level of the experiences of our Moral Nature. He is not concerned to deny that there are other paths to the citadel of faith. But some of these he would seem to regard as offering but a rugged and uncertain track, while others are but side-walks of the two great main lines already travell...ed. * Instead of surveying * See, however, the Preface to these Articles. PITFALLS OF PHILOSOPHY. 81 these, therefore, he proceeds to warn us against the danger of two diverging routes, which, turning the one out of the road of Causal- ity, the other out of the road of Conscience, may easily tempt us to deviate from our proper course and lead us very far astray ending, indeed, in pitfalls which destroy, in the one case, all per- sonal, in the other, all moral rela- tion between man and God. Accordingly, to the criticism of Pantheism on the one side and Determinism on the other, either of which doctrines sucks the life out of Theism, he devotes Book III a Book covering nearly half of the second Volume of his work.
