Summary:
Human reason and Divine Revelation are two means by which truth is
manifested to man; they cannot contradict one another; as a matter of
fact, that which is evident to reason is never found in conflict with
Revelation. -from the Introduction Intended as a textbook for
Catholic schools and seminaries, this compact guide to modern
philosophy explored from a Catholic perspective covers:. Syllogisms.
Method in reasoning. Truth and falsity. Means of attaining certainty.
Common sense. The nature of being. The origin of the world. The
nature of the human soul. The physical and metaphysical essence of
God This little book became one of the foundations of modern Catholic
philosophy when it was first published in 1891, and it continues to
hold dramatic sway over contemporary Christians, its pronouncements
on morality fueling the arguments of religious activists in the moral
debates dividing our society today. American Jesuit scholar CHARLES
COPPENS is also the author of A Brief Text-book of Moral Philosophy
(1896) and Moral Principles and Medical Practice (1897).
