Abstract

THE question which Mr. Delancey Wellbye sets at the beginning of his book, and answers in the affirmative, is this: “If God and an after life are set aside as probably improvable but anyhow irrelevant to the conduct of this life, and if the miraculous is discarded as incredible and needless, do the elements of a satisfying and sustaining religion exist?”
