Description

This book deals with certain more recent religious philosophies that are of increasing importance in the United States as well as abroad. If a superficial observation shows vast differences among some of these movements, a more careful examination of their basic philosophies discloses sound reasons for treating them as closely related. Moreover, all these groups have a lineal descent from a common cultural origin which shows their doctrinal kinship and illumines more clearly the nature of this relation. Foreword Introduction I The Mirror of American Culture II Spiritualism III Theosophy and Its Allies The Arcane School The Astara Foundation IV Phineas P. Quimby and Warren Felt Evans V New Thought VI The Divine Science Church VII The Church of Religious Science VIII The Unity'School of Christianity IX Christian Science X The Church and Health Index
