Abstract

A clean-cut study of this kind will despoil chapters of preformed, home-made wisdom and volumes of argumentation between opposing camps. It will be a relief to both to let the facts bear the burden of the argument. It will be profitable psychologically and practically to come to seek the subjective as well as the objective grounds of religious assent. This study and the companion one by Dr. Sinclair represent, perhaps, the first attempts to apply rigorously empirical methods with a high order of objective control including experimentation to the study of a religious problem.
