Excerpt from The Notions of the Chinese Concerning God and Spirits: With an Examination of the Defense of an Essay, on the Proper Rendering of the Words Elohim and Theos, Into the Chinese Language, by William J. Boone, D. D., Missionary Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church of the United States to China IN submitting the following pages to the public, the author has nothing to add to what he has stated in the Introduction regarding their leading object. If he could have kept the controversial element out of his attempt to exhibit the Reli gion of China, he would gladly have done so, conscious how liable the mind is, in the heat of discussion, to present certain aspects of the truth in less or more than their fair proportions. The other branch of his object - the consideration of the terms to be used in the Chinese Scriptures for God and spirit could not be handled but in a controversial manner. He has endeavoured to treat it without bitterness. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
