DEAN INGE.
VTEAVS ON HEAVEN AND HELL. Dean Inge, in the preface to hi.s latest book, “God and the Astronomers,” admits that he does not support tho traditional, heaven and hell of the Christian religion, and says that he does not know whether this abandonment of a local, geographical, and temporal “next world” will cause distress and indignation to many of his readers, but that, as far as he can see, science leaves no alternative course. In his book he says: “Regarding the future I can think of eternity most easily as really existing in the kingdom of the ultimate and eternal values of goodness, truth, and beauty. Our hearts’ true home is in that perfect unchanging world in which God’s will is done, in which His thoughts are fully expressed, and in which His love and beauty pervade as an atmosphere.”
