In an era marked by the rise of secularism and the challenge to traditional beliefs, "The Theistic Conception of the World: An Essay in Opposition to Certain Tendencies of Modern Thought" by B. F. Cocker confronts the philosophical upheavals of the late 19th century. This thought-provoking essay defends the existence of a divine creator while critiquing the growing acceptance of atheistic and pantheistic ideologies. Cocker articulates the significance of moral order and purpose, emphasizing the necessity of a theistic worldview in understanding human existence. Ideal for students, civic activists, and historians, this work invites readers to engage with the enduring questions of faith and reason, providing a compelling argument for theistic belief in a rapidly changing intellectual landscape.
