Agnosticism And Religion

""Agnosticism and Religion"" is a philosophical treatise written by Jacob Gould Schurman. The book explores the concept of agnosticism, which is the belief that the existence of God or any other deity is unknown and unknowable. Schurman examines the relationship between agnosticism and religion, arguing that the two are not necessarily mutually exclusive. He suggests that agnosticism can be seen as a form of religious skepticism, rather than a rejection of religion altogether. Schurman also delves into the history of agnosticism, tracing its roots back to ancient Greece and exploring the ideas of prominent philosophers such as Immanuel Kant and Friedrich Nietzsche. He also discusses the role of science in agnosticism and how scientific discoveries have influenced the way people think about religion and the existence of God.Throughout the book, Schurman presents a nuanced and thoughtful exploration of the relationship between agnosticism and religion. He argues that both can coexist and that agnosticism can even enhance one's religious beliefs by encouraging a deeper exploration of the unknown and unknowable aspects of the divine. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, religion, and the intersection of the two.This Book Is Comprised Of Three Philosophical Addresses Made Before The Students Of Cornell University At The End Of The 19th Century.
