Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Science
In the same provisional manner might principles derived from the domain of revealed theology be advantageously carried into the province of nature. There is a true deduc tive method in science as well as a false; and there is a right method of employing theological principles in philo sophy, as well as a wrong. Everything depends on the manner in which they are employed. The inductive con clusion must be kept distinct from the speculative assump tion. However fruitful the deductive principle may be, it can be used only for suggestion, not for demonstration; the proof of the view suggested must be of the same nature with that of the subject investigated or discussed.
