Book Description
Excerpt from The Moral Order of the World: In Ancient and Modern Thought Our theme is still the Providential Order. The new title, however, is used not merely to make a nominal distinction between the two courses Of Lectures but because there is a real, though slight, difference in meaning which makes the title the more appropriate to this course. A Providential Order implies a God who provides. One who speaks of a Providence is a Theist, who believes in a God caring for, and governing, all. The Moral Order, on the other hand, is impersonal, and one may use the phrase and believe in the thing it denotes, who is no Theist, no believer in a living personal God in the ordinary theistic sense of the words. Buddha, the theme of our first Lecture, is an instance. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
