Abba Hillel Silver

Marc Lee Raphael

4.9/5 (34615 ratings)

Description:Silver's writings and activities had a profound influence on American life, both religious and secular. Like William James, he believed the business of religion was to unlock people's inner resources. "Judaism's central and unique property" he wrote, "is the power to release faith and courage for living, to produce spiritual vitality and fruitfulness, and by that that it ultimately stands or falls." For Silver, this power functioned two ways-as a support during crises and as a stimulus to high endeavours. This, of course, raises the question of whether religion is purely psychology or also philosophy, whether it can distance itself from the supernatural and remain, in fact, religion. Raphael deals with these questions in this challenging and provocative study.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
