Christianity and Positivism is a book written by James McCosh, a Scottish philosopher and theologian. The book explores the relationship between Christianity and positivism, a philosophical movement that emphasizes empirical evidence and scientific reasoning. McCosh argues that Christianity and positivism are not mutually exclusive, and that the two can coexist in harmony. He discusses various topics such as the nature of God, the role of reason in religion, and the relationship between faith and science. McCosh also critiques the positivist philosophy, arguing that it is incomplete and unable to fully explain the complexities of human experience. The book is a thought-provoking exploration of the intersection between religion and science, and a call for a more nuanced understanding of both.1874. A series of lectures to the times on natural theology and apologetics. Contents: First Series: Christianity and Physical Sciences: argument from design as affected by modern discoveries in science; natural selection; limits to the law of natural selection; Second Series: Christianity and Mental Science: proof of the existence of mind and of its possessing the capacity of knowledge; mental principles involved in the theistic argument; progress of free thought in America; materialism; Third Series: Christianity and Historical Investigation: our Lord's life a reality and not a romance; unity of our Lord's life; planting of the Christian Church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
