Belief in Immortality on Purely Logical Principles

B. Gross Joseph

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. According to orthodox creeds and a commonly entertained prejudice, the vastly greater part Of mankind, have never been blessed with what is technically termed a Revelation, and it is, hence, generally believed that the heathensfiz the peoples who are unprovided with a supernatural revela tion, can know nothing that is reliable Of a future life, and that, accordingly, they must either pine in dreary hopelessness, or. Fret In blank despair! Such - I am bold to say, is far from being the case. For the heathens possess a source Of knowledge inherent in human nature, Which - In a manner Similar to the revelation claimed for the Bible, isdesigned at once to guide our present, and to foreshadow: if not actually demonstrate, our future life.
