The Principle of Authority in Relation to Certainty, Sanctity, and Society: An Essay in the Philosophy of Experimental Religion is a book written by Peter T. Forsyth and published in 1912. The book explores the role of authority in religion, specifically how it relates to certainty, sanctity, and society. Forsyth argues that authority is necessary for religious belief and practice, as it provides a foundation of certainty and helps maintain the sanctity of religious traditions. He also examines the relationship between authority and society, arguing that religious authority can both shape and be shaped by social norms and values. The book draws on a range of philosophical and theological sources, including the works of Immanuel Kant, Friedrich Schleiermacher, and John Henry Newman. Overall, The Principle of Authority in Relation to Certainty, Sanctity, and Society offers a thoughtful and nuanced exploration of the role of authority in religion and its broader cultural context.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
