Excerpt from The New Infinite and the Old Theology The following pages have been written under the stress of that conviction, which the intervening years have but deepened and confirmed. Rational theology is a legitimate and venerable member of the great family of spiritual enterprises of man: natural science, philosophy, jurisprudence, religion, art, mathematics, theology. These are all of them children of one great passion: the imperious craving of the human spirit for an inner ideal adjustment of life to the tragic limitations of life in a owing world. The distinctive problems of rational theology are regarded as in a special sense originating in what may be called the supernalizing tendence or power of the human mind. This propensity or power, so strange and so famil iar in every category of the understanding, ever and everywhere manifesting the pres ence of a kind of divine energy in the world, is a 'natural' agency, being at once a human faculty and a cosmic force, deeper than will; and so rational theology is con ceived to be a species of 'natural' science that branch of it which has for its special task to study and to appraise the phenomena of Idealization.
