Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The History of the Supernatural in All Ages and Nations and in All Churches, Vol. 1 of 2: Christian and Pagan
Theologic critics in England, when they have stated that everything is subject to law, think they have exploded all miracle, as if miracle were not itself a law. These gentle men presume that they know all the laws of God, or of N ature, as they prefer to call the infinite Power, when they are seeing every day still new laws discovered. A mira culum, or thing to be wondered at, is only such from our ignorance and what must be the ignorance of sound theology in England when we see our teachers of divinity, who have been disciplined and educated in the highest national schools, reduced to the necessity of huckstering the sweepings of the studies of German professors and seizing as valuable prizes on their old broken pipes and cast-off boots. It is no disparage ment oi' the 'essays and Reviews' or of Bishop Colenso's book to say, that there is not a single new argument or dis covery in them, because it is impossible to produce such. The Germans have wagon-loads of this species of criticism, which leave all such brochures as these the most threadbare of common-places.
