The God of Philosophy

IN the following pages I have attempted no more than to restate in simple language and upon the old philosophical basis, the natural proofs by which the existence of God is demonstrated. As far as I know, there is no small and handy English treatise upon the subject that attempts to deal with its matter upon the plan here adopted. The literature bearing upon this important philosophical question is exceedingly voluminous. Perhaps more has been written upon it than upon any other subject of human interest. Great thinkers of every age and nation have laboured upon the point. But apart from the grave initial difficulty of the languages in which their results have been stated, there is the further disadvantage that their work is scattered through almost countless volumes and fragments, making it no easy matter to gather its results, or the method by which they were acquired, into any one compendious form.
