Modern Belief in Immortality is a book written by Newman Smyth, a prominent American theologian, and published in 1892. The book explores the concept of immortality and its place in modern society. Smyth examines the various beliefs and attitudes towards immortality held by different cultures and religious traditions, including Christianity, Judaism, Islam, and Buddhism.The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on the historical and philosophical aspects of immortality, tracing the development of the belief in an afterlife from ancient times to the present day. Smyth discusses the various arguments for and against the existence of an afterlife, including the problem of evil, the nature of the soul, and the concept of resurrection.The second part of the book examines the practical implications of belief in immortality. Smyth discusses how the belief in an afterlife affects our attitudes towards life and death, our moral and ethical behavior, and our understanding of the meaning and purpose of life. He also explores the role of immortality in providing comfort and consolation in times of grief and loss.Overall, Modern Belief in Immortality is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of one of the most fundamental and enduring human beliefs. It offers a comprehensive and nuanced understanding of the concept of immortality, its historical and philosophical roots, and its practical implications for individuals and society as a whole.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
