Publisher's Synopsis

""Christianity and Agnosticism: A Controversy"" is a book written by Thomas Huxley, a prominent 19th-century scientist and philosopher. The book is a collection of essays and lectures that Huxley gave on the topic of Christianity and agnosticism, which is the belief that the existence of God cannot be proven or disproven.In the book, Huxley argues that agnosticism is a more intellectually honest position than Christianity because it acknowledges the limits of human knowledge and the impossibility of proving the existence of God. He also criticizes the arguments put forth by Christian theologians, arguing that they are based on faulty logic and a misunderstanding of science.Despite his criticisms of Christianity, Huxley does not reject religion altogether. He argues that there is value in religious beliefs and practices, but that they should be approached with a critical and skeptical mindset.Overall, ""Christianity and Agnosticism: A Controversy"" is a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between religion and science, and the limitations of human knowledge. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of faith and reason.Additional works by The Bishop of Peterborough and W. H. Mallock.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
