Abstract
THIS book, issued anonymously by the Rationalist Press Association, is explicitly directed against Mr. Balfour's defence of Christianity (p. 10). To those who read with an animus against this “decaying creed,” the author's vigour and lavish use of epithets may appear conclusive reasoning. To the impartial, it will scarcely appear to-be criticism at all. Mr. Balfour's method in the “Foundations of Belief” was?? advance from the more general philosophic position to the problem of “Provisional Unification.” However much his critic believed that Mr. Balfour's theism was based on “emotion and sentiment” (p. 222), or that it could be explained by a. review of his pedigree (p. 224), he had no right to rely too much on this application of the historical method. Mr. Balfour's Apologetics Critically Examined. Pp. vi + 232. (London: Watts and Co., 1902.) Price 3s. 6d.
