2.2 - The Great Atheistic Petitio Principii - Thomson Jay Hudson

The Divine Pedigree of Man - Audiobook by Thomson Jay Hudson
Part 2 - Chapter 2 - The Great Atheistic Petitio Principii

Dr. Hudson was a genius at revealing how science and religion harmonize. This book reveals how logical the idea of a First Great Cause is when examining the phenomenon of evolution. To paraphrase Dr. Hudson: There is an initial misconception by atheistic scientists that evolution eliminates the need for a divine creator and the corresponding mistake by theologians in rejecting evolution as incompatible with their beliefs. Over time, more open-minded individuals from both sides have recognized that evolution, rather than negating the existence of God, can be seen as God's method of creation. The understanding of organic evolution leads to a clearer appreciation of the teleological argument, reinforcing the idea that the evidence of intelligent design in evolution strengthens the concept of a Divine and Intelligent Creator or The First Great Cause.

The success that "The Law of Psychic Phenomena" met with induced the author to prepare and publish the present volume for the purpose of carrying to their legitimate conclusions some of the principles laid down in his former one. Dr. Hudson, in pursuing his inquiry, has endeavored to follow the strictest rules of scientific induction, taking nothing for granted that is not axiomatic, and holding that there is nothing worthy of belief that is not sustained by a solid basis of well-authenticated facts.
