But finally the grand reconciliation must come from this, that when science advances into the psychic realm,--when it demonstrates the existence of the soul, and demonstrates that heaven is not a morbid dream but a splendid reality,--the religious sentiment will recognize such science as its friend; and when science goes farther, and interprets the Divine laws as written by omnipotent wisdom in the constitution of man, more plainly and far more fully than they have ever been expressed in religious writings, then will religion perceive that such science is the Divine messenger before whom it should bow in reverence, and whose every utterance should be held sacred. keywords: acres; address; advance; age; american; anatomy; animals; anthropology; art; attention; basis; best; better; body; books; boston; brain; buchanan; business; case; cents; century; cerebral; chapter; character; chief; church; cincinnati; civilization; claims; collection; colleges; colony; coming; common; complete; condition; constitution; copy; correct; country; course; day; death; demonstration; department; development; devoted; different; discoveries; discovery; disease; distinguished; doctor; doctrines; doubt; editor; educated; education; elements; england; entire; error; established; european; evils; experiments; external; facts; faculties; false; fast; fasting; fitch; following; form; free; functions; future; gall; general; george; good; government; grand; great; half; head; health; higher; highest; history; house; human; humanity; ideas; ignorance; illustrated; illustration; important; individual; influence; insanity; instruction; intellectual; intelligence; interesting; investigation; ireland; irish; james; john; journal; justice; knowledge; labor; land; landlord; language; large; laws; life; like; literature; little; london; longevity; lost; love; man; mankind; matters; medical; men; methods; mexico; mind; miscellaneous; modern; monopoly; monthly; months; moral; moung; mrs; music; nature; negro; new; number; old; operation; opinion; order; organ; original; owen; pages; paper; people; persons; phenomena; philosophy; phoset; phrenology; physical; physiological; physiology; pioneer; place; portion; position; power; practical; practice; present; press; principles; profession; progress; psychic; psychology; psychometry; public; question; railroad; realm; reason; reform; regard; religion; remarkable; results; rich; rights; sarcognomy; science; scientific; scientists; scully; self; sinaloa; single; skull; social; society; soul; spiritual; spurzheim; states; street; structure; study; subject; success; system; tanner; temperance; tenants; test; themes; therapeutic; thought; time; topolobampo; treatment; trees; true; truth; united; valuable; value; vast; volume; war; wisdom; women; work; world; years; york cache: 22336.txt plain text: 22336.txt item: #3 of 17 id: 25819 author: None title: Buchanan's Journal of Man, March 1887 Volume 1, Number 2 date: None words: 18728 flesch: 58 summary: Anthropology may need, like other new sciences, new terms for its new ideas, but the old words of plain English express all the very important elements of human nature.

This organ is situated in the corner of the eye next the nose, and when large there is a considerable breadth across the nose at that place: its chief use is in the accurate knowledge of form, whether of persons or objects, and disposes the mind to give a definite form to objects even when unseen: it is to this the acute observation of objects, by which means we compare them one with another, or personal identity after absence and probable change in the form of features: to this organ many distinguished sculptors and architects owe much of their excellence, as its necessary action in connection with other organs would be to express an accuracy of outline: it is to an excessive use of this organ that painters study correctness of form in drawing, and neglect colouring; useful to architects for this reason. keywords: abuse; action; active; age; aim; animal; attachment; attention; benevolence; best; bone; brain; causes; cerebellum; character; charity; children; christian; combativeness; common; comparison; conscientiousness; courage; deficient; degree; desire; destructiveness; developement; different; direct; disposition; education; energy; error; esteem; events; evident; evil; exercise; exertion; existence; experience; extent; external; eye; facts; faculties; faculty; faith; features; feelings; form; frontal; gall; general; god; good; great; heart; higher; home; hope; human; ideas; improvement; increase; individual; influence; intellectual; knowledge; known; language; large; leads; learning; life; little; long; love; man; manner; matter; means; measure; mental; middle; mind; moral; national; natural; nature; necessary; neglect; new; objects; observation; operation; opinions; order; organ; organ large; organization; particular; parts; passions; people; perception; perfect; persons; philosophy; phrenologists; phrenology; physical; pleasure; point; portion; power; present; principles; produces; prominent; propensities; proper; proportion; purpose; pursuit; race; reason; regard; religious; results; right; sanguine; science; self; sentiments; size; skull; small; society; spirit; spiritual; spurzheim; state; study; system; talent; temperament; tendency; things; true; truth; useful; valuable; value; veneration; view; virtue; wants; way; words; world; years cache: 35748.txt plain text: 35748.txt item: #17 of 17 id: 41501 author: Atkinson, William Walker title: How to Read Human Nature: Its Inner States and Outer Forms date: None words: 29879 flesch: 59 summary: This Quality manifests in a strong desire to read character, discern human motives, interpret feelings and thoughts, and to _know_ men and women thoroughly.
