Bergson and Religion is a book written by Lucius Hopkins Miller that explores the relationship between the philosophy of Henri Bergson and religion. Henri Bergson was a French philosopher who believed that intuition and experience were the keys to understanding reality. Miller examines how Bergson's philosophy can be applied to religious beliefs and practices, particularly in the areas of mysticism, morality, and the concept of God. The book also explores Bergson's views on the nature of time and how they relate to religious experiences. Miller argues that Bergson's philosophy provides a fertile ground for understanding the religious experience and offers a new perspective on the relationship between religion and philosophy. The book is intended for scholars and students of philosophy and religion, as well as anyone interested in understanding the intersection of these two fields.1916. As the reader will quickly see, this is not primarily a book on philosophy, but a book on religion. Otherwise the writing of it should have been left to a philosopher, and that the author does not pretend to be. The ground covered lies between the two subjects (or, rather, overlaps both) and might therefore be open to occupancy by students of either subject. If Bergson's doctrine be completely accepted, what results for religion? The reader will soon discover the author sympathizes with the teaching of Bergson at many points, both on philosophical and religious grounds, but there are also elements of his system which Miller finds hard to accept. Contents: preliminary observations; Bergson the Protestant; how do we know reality? creative evolution;intuition and the primacy of spirit; individual freedom; immortality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
