Description
Excerpt from The Origin and Propagation of Sin: Being the Hulsean Lectures Delivered Before the University of Cambridge in 1901 2
Meanwhile I attempt to supply a criticism of the implications of a traditional doctrine, and a restatement of so much of its essential meaning as can be retained, rather than a commentary upon it; and, in doing so, to offer a small contribution to inductive and critical theology. It is hoped that some little service may be thereby rendered in meeting an increasing, if a silent, demand from persons who approach theological literature from the point of View of natural science or philosophy.
It is made sufficiently plain in the course of the lectures that the repudiation of the doctrine of Original Sin is not new to Christian theology, and that in some features of the reconstruction which they endeavour to supply I have already been anticipated.
