Liberal Christian Orthodoxy

By F.H. Cleobury

The author believes that a large number of intelligent people in Britain are sincerely drawn towards the Church, but hesitate to identify themselves with it so long as they would thereby be deemed to hold beliefs which even the most cautious thinkers must feel to be impossible for the modern mind. In order to address these concerns, Dr Cleobury offers an accessible argument that the essential elements of Christian faith can be grounded in rational, philosophical thought, rather than in the blind acceptance a complex mass of dogma. His arguments are wide-ranging, covering the relation between religion and moral conduct, human survival after bodily death, the Christian concept of human individuality, theology as an empirical science, the historical Jesus, psychical research and Christian eschatology.
