Higher Pantheism In A Nutshell

Higher Pantheism in a Nutshell

by Algernon Charles Swinburne

This philosophical poem explores the concept of pantheism, the belief that God is the universe and the universe is God. Swinburne argues that this belief is more rational and satisfying than traditional theism, which posits a separate and transcendent God. In lush and lyrical language, he explores the implications of pantheism for our understanding of the world and our place in it.
