In "The Layman's Faith," Isaac Newton Arnold addresses the profound question: "If A Man Die, Shall He Live Again?" This paper, originally presented to the Philosophical Society of Chicago in 1882, delves into the intersection of faith, science, and the enduring human quest for understanding life after death. Arnold's work provides a fascinating glimpse into late 19th-century intellectual discourse, exploring theological and philosophical arguments concerning immortality and the nature of religious belief.
This essay offers valuable insights into historical perspectives on faith and reason, making it a compelling read for those interested in religious studies, philosophy, and the history of ideas. "The Layman's Faith" invites readers to contemplate fundamental questions about existence and the spiritual dimensions of human experience.
