even for the Bible, 672; the

673; of the Old Testament, 674;

Origin of the Concept of God, The,

article on, by Rev. George T.
Ladd, 1; the logical faculty not
alone concerned in the formation
of this concept, 1; in the forma

cal organs, 2; certain elements of
the concept furnished by the in-
tellect, 3; this view of the concept
verified by experience, 4; three
methods of inquiring into the ori
gin of our knowledge of God, 4;
the historical and inductive passed
over, and the analytical method
to be employed, 5; the organ
for the reception of truth is sym-
metrically cultured manhood, 6;
this especially true in regard to
the concept of God, 8; evil results
of so treating our moral natures that
we lose the knowledge of God, 11;
in forming the concept of God
unrestrained exercise should not
be given to the emotional nature,
17; the concept of God the re-
sultant of God's revelation of him-
self to the human soul, 18; the
activities of the human soul as
contributing to the formation of
this concept, 19; the action of the

being of God to be greatly en-

edge of the true relations of the
sun to the planetary bodies, 268;
erroneous ideas of the form of the
earth, 268; the sacred writers
conceived a great body of water
as existing under the earth, 270;
conceived the sky to be a solid
substance, 270; above the firma-
ment a great body of water, 272;
statements as to various animals
at variance with scientific truth,
273; God represented as doing
directly what man does, 275; some
matters of faith do come within
the purview of science, 276; this
mode of interpretation as imply-
ing low views of inspiration, 277;
difficulties in applying this mode
of interpretation to the account
of the cosmogony, 278; the com-
mon mode of interpreting this ac-
count, 278; difficulties attending
this mode greater than those at-
tending our mode, 281.

355; the true doctrine of Final
Cause or design in nature, 355;
list of works on the subject, 355;
is there design in nature? 357;
design shown in the intelligible
adaptation of the final result, 357;
at how many or at what points the
elements of design centered, a mat-
ter of indifference, 359; Paley did
not reason in a circle, 360; Paley
may at some time have expressed
himself incautiously, 362; Paley
does not make sufficiently promi-
nent the a fortiori nature of his
argument, 363; life does not exist
or continue by necessity, 364; does
the Darwinian hypothesis exclude
design? 365; life according to
Darwin not a product of the pres-
ent conditions of existence, 365;
but has been continuous for mil-
lions of years, 365; difficulties in
the way of an exhaustive inter-
pretation of God's design in na-
ture, 367; a constant warfare be-
tween the members of the animal
kingdom, 369; difficulties in the
doctrine of second causes analo-
gous to those in the doctrine of
final causes, 370; difficult not to
lose sight of some of the threads of
physical causation, 371; degree in
which we can interpret design in
nature, 374; the use to which we
can put a thing never more than
a fragment of the final cause of
its existence, 376; important quo-
tation from Darwin on this point,
377; no new questions regarding
final causes raised in this passage,
379; Gray's suggestion as to the
purpose served by the seeming
waste in nature, 380; the revela-

time for special studies may be
gained by devoting less time to
the languages, 49; practicableness
