Philosophical Realism

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Philosophy, not theology and religion, is the writer's quest; and an argument on God and crea tion is introduced only for the sake of philosophy, which required it as a condition of intellectual continuity and final unity of conception. As it is a beautiful custom for authors in their preface to designate the sources and lines of light Whence their own radiance, which might not else be clearly seen in some cases, the present writer wishes to say that he is indebted to all thinkers who have gone before him, both the known and the (to him) great unknown; and he sincerely thanks them for their inestimable benefactions, of the value of which to him, as indicated in this volume, he invites the philosophic public to judge, if it can find time, now or in the future.
