Description
Summary:One of the fundamental questions being raised by thoughtful people today is concerning the adequacy of the conception of God which finds philosophical expression in theism. This article contains the substance of a paper on the subject read before the Theological Society in New York on April 11, 1925. It attempts to indicate some of the reasons why theism no longer possesses a cogent appeal, and to indicate an approach to a definition of God more in accordance with the empirical temper of our day.
