Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Three Lectures on the Theory of Natural Evolution: Delivered in S. Thomas' Church, Ootacamund
The province of reason has to do with the evidences and not the contents of revealed religion such as the genuineness and authenticity of the documents the character of Him who professed to be divine thecredibility of those who assert He worked miracles; the fulfilment of the predictions of a coming Messiah the rise and progress of the Christian religion, and the causes of its marvellous success.2 Let us take one of these, the Miracles of Christ, and see within what limits reason should pursue her investigations. Says one, Miracles are impossible. Who are we, that we should say what is, and what is not possible? But, The laws of nature are absolute and irrevocable.
