Russell-White Debate: A Public Discussion

By Charles Taze Russell

Book Overview

The Russell-White Debate: A Public Discussion is a book that chronicles a debate between two prominent figures in the world of religion and philosophy, Charles T. Russell and George H. White. The debate took place in 1914 and was held in Brooklyn, New York, in front of a large audience. The book contains a transcript of the entire debate, including the opening statements, rebuttals, and closing arguments from both participants. Charles T. Russell was a well-known religious leader and founder of the Jehovah's Witnesses. George H. White was a prominent philosopher and theologian who had written extensively on the subject of religion and its place in society. The debate centered around the topic of the existence of God and the role of religion in modern society. Russell argued that the Bible provided clear evidence of the existence of God and that religion was necessary for moral guidance and spiritual fulfillment. White, on the other hand, argued that there was no empirical evidence to support the existence of God and that religion was a human invention used to control and manipulate people. The Russell-White Debate: A Public Discussion provides a fascinating look into the intellectual and philosophical debates of the early 20th century. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of religion, philosophy, and public discourse.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
