summary:
  'In Theism,' so Haeckel draws out the comparison, 'God is opposed to Nature as an extra-mundane being, as creating and sustaining the world, and acting upon it from without, while in Pantheism God, as an intra-mundane being, is everywhere identical with Nature itself, and is operative within the world as force or {73} energy.'[5] Guesses at the Riddle of Existence; Lectures on the Study of History; The founder of Christianity_.

summary:
  Hence it is manifestly absurd to adduce this explanation as evidence of the hypothesis on which it rests--to argue that Theism must therefore be true; because we assume it to be so, in order to explain _known_ mind, as distinguished from _Mind_. In the first place, it does not account for mind (in the abstract) to refer it to a prior mind for its origin; and therefore, although the hypothesis, if admitted, would be _an_ explanation of _known_ mind, it is useless as an argument for the existence of the unknown mind, the assumption of which forms the basis of that explanation.

  Know the Truth: A Critique on the Hamiltonian Theory of Limitation Including Some Strictures Upon the Theories of Rev. Henry L. Mansel and Mr. Herbert Spencer

summary:
  If, then, only one modification--object--comes into it at a time, this is because the faculties which see in its light are thus organized;--the being to whom it belongs is partial; but there is nothing pertaining to consciousness _as such_, which constitutes a limit,--which could bar the infinite Person from seeing all things at once in its light. So, then, though man cannot comprehend the absolute Person _as such_, he has a positive idea of absoluteness, and a positive knowledge that the Being is who is thus qualified.

summary:
  I. Is belief in God a reasonable belief, or is it not? And religion includes more even than an apprehension of God supplemented by feeling--than the love or fear of God based on knowledge.

summary:
  It is this difficulty that has caused two parties to spring up, one of the _predeterminators_, the other of the supporters of _mediate knowledge_. _Metaphysical evil_ consists in mere imperfection, _physical evil_ in suffering, and _moral evil_ in sin.
