This critical review of theistic thought, as expounded especially in the series of Gifford Lectures, reminds one of the verger who declared that he had heard all the Bampton Lectures and was still a believer.

We have traveled far from the days of Paley, but nature is still teleologically interpreted by the philosopher, although the teleology is not external and mechanical.
