勃特兰·罗素
勃特兰·罗素的小册子为什么我不是基督徒是对不可知论信条的经典阐述。 这本同名小书是基于他1927年发表的演说。文章首先简单阐述罗素反对有神论论据,然后详细论述其对基督教教义之道德反对。最后他更呼吁他的读者要用“无惧的态度和开放的智慧”“独立自主、公平正直地看世界”。 在罗素后来的小册子我是一个无神论者或者不可知论吗?(副标题: 对面对新教条所持容忍态度的辩论)中, 他确认,他在哲学意义上是一个不可知论者,不知道神是否真的存在。然而在同一部作品中,他也接纳,无神论者这一称呼能更加好的表达非哲学追随者的宗教姿态。
Dedicated as few men have been to the life of reason, Bertrand Russell has always been concerned with the basic questions to which religion also addresses itself -- questions about man's place in the universe and the nature of the good life, questions that involve life after death, morality, freedom, education, and sexual ethics. He brings to his treatment of these questions the same courage, scrupulous logic, and lofty wisdom for which his other work as philosopher, writer, and teacher has been famous. These qualities make the essays included in this book perhaps the most graceful and moving presentation of the freethinker's position since the days of Hume and Voltaire. "I am as firmly convinced that religions do harm as I am that they are untrue," Russell declares in his Preface, and his reasoned opposition to any system or dogma which he feels may shackle man's mind runs through all the essays in this book, whether they were written as early as 1899 or as late as 1954. The book has been edited, with Lord Russell's full approval and cooperation, by Professor Paul Edwards of the Philosophy Department of New York University. In an Appendix, Professor Edwards contributes a full account of the highly controversial "Bertrand Russell Case" of 1940, in which Russell was judicially declared "unfit" to teach philosophy at the College of the City of New York. Whether the reader shares or rejects Bertrand Russell's views, he will find this book an invigorating challenge to set notions, a masterly statement of a philosophical position, and a pure joy to read.
罗素的论文集《为什么我不是基督教徒》在82年就已由商务印书馆在国内出版,时隔30年,商务印书馆将这册论文集列入汉译世界学术名著丛书再版。遗憾的是本书仅是罗素关于神学问题的一些讨论的论文的合辑,而不是一部系统阐述其神学思想的专著,因此从中所窥得的,也许和一个真正...
评分 评分一直很喜欢罗素这个小老头。风趣幽默,一针见血。选择信仰宗教也许是一件更轻松的事情,但这个可爱又倔强的小老头就是要坚持自己的理性。这本书是和C.S. 路易斯的《返璞归真》对照读的,两本书同样讲到了神性,宗教的精神体验,以及宗教的作用和地位。相比起“传教士”的心灵鸡...
评分一個人如果要表示自己是基督教徒,最起碼的前提有:一是相信上帝永遠不朽,二是承認基督是最優秀、最有智慧的人。而并非人人都抱有這兩條信念。羅素先生相信基督的德行是非常高尚的,但還不足以稱是最優秀的。更詳細地說明,將會分成如下幾個方面進行。 第...
评分以前看过罗素的《幸福之路》,觉得写得非常好,很受启发。现在这本书是罗素关于宗教及相关问题的一个论文集,不是完整体系的一本书。有若干篇觉得还是很好,不过也有几篇感觉写得深奥了点,是我现在的认知水平所不能完全领会的--这当然并不算是一件出奇的事情。罗素本身是哲学...
我觉得这种东西还是读原版比较好。正巧有原版就看起。反复批判自我是成长的方式之一。
评分某天上课老师提到,不过我是暑假读的。。
评分i just read"Why I Am Not A Christian".i like the point"Fear, the Foundation of Religion".
评分科学而理性的看待生命的无意义难道不是一种回避么?
评分That star is for the powerful language (which I really really like :)
