What reading level is The Theistic Argument As Affected By Recent Theories : a Course of Lectures Delivered At the Lowell Institute in Boston book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
1 Fiske, Cosmic Philosophy^ vol, ii., p. 385.
Digitized by VjOOQIC 196 THE THEISTIC ARGUMENT, The so-called proofs of creative foresight are, there- fore, the mind reflecting itself.
If I have not wholly failed of my aim in the pre- ceding discussion, I have already sufficiently shown the utter groundlessness of these loud assertions.
I have shown that evolution is perfectly consistent with the idea of final cause ; that it does not render the hypothesis of final cause superfluous ; and the ext...ension of our knowledge of physical causation, in- stead of putting final causes out of sight, only adds to the evidence in their favor. Evolution, how far soever we may extend it, can neither account for the origin of the universe as a whole, nor for the order and adjustment of its parts. An element en- ters into the problem for which the mind demands another and a more satisfactory solution than mere physical causation can furnish. To affirm that life is the continuous adjustment of inner relations to outer relations, is to affirm nothing to the point, since the adjustment is the very fact for which we are seeking to account.
