Excerpt from Chaos or Cosmos? Is the world in which we live a chaos, a welter of blind forces and brutish passions?

Excerpt from Cosmos, or Chaos? Theism, or Atheism? As we study the monuments of antiquity, Lord Kelvin's dictum, if applied to them, is everlastingly true: Science compels us to accept as an article of our belief, the fact, that they are the product of a creating and directing or of an Intelligence, having' purpose, together with adequate power to carry out that purpose; and, its corollary is equally true, viz., that without intelligence they never could have been produced.

Excerpt from Cosmos Cosmos One I Go search the aeons an you will Where withered leaves of Doubt are whirled, And who hath solved this riddle, Life, Or Death - that moves with sails unfurled, Beyond the straining eyes of man Marooned upon an unknown world. II Nor tongue hath told, nor vision caught That paradox. Primeval Cause; Each age has had some parable Each age succeeding marked the flaws; While shifted, with the calendar, What men have termed generic laws. III Creed after creed behold them now Like Etna on Vesuvius piled; Till, scaled to earth by drifting sands They lie in later days reviled, And pushed aside by Time's rough hand As toys are, by a peevish child.

All over the world people look forward to a perfect future, when the forces of good will be finally victorious over the forces of evil. Once this was a radically new way of imagining the destiny of the world and of mankind. How did it originate, and what kind of world-view preceded it? In this engrossing book, the author of the classic work The Pursuit of the Millennium takes us on a journey of exploration, through the world-views of ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, and India, through the innovations of Iranian and Jewish prophets and sages, to the earliest Christian imaginings of heaven on earth. Until around 1500 B.C., it was generally believed that once the world had been set in order by the gods, it was in essence immutable. However, it was always a troubled world. By means of flood and drought, famine and plague, defeat in war, and death itself, demonic forces threatened and impaired it. Various combat myths told how a divine warrior kept the forces of chaos at bay and enabled the world to survive. Sometime between 1500 and 1200 B.C., the Iranian prophet Zoroaster broke from that static yet anxious world-view, reinterpreting the Iranian version of the combat myth. For Zoroaster, the world was moving, through incessant conflict, toward a conflictless state—“cosmos without chaos.” The time would come when, in a prodigious battle, the supreme god would utterly defeat the forces of chaos and their human allies and eliminate them forever, and so bring an absolutely good world into being. Cohn reveals how this vision of the future was taken over by certain Jewish groups, notably the Jesus sect, with incalculable consequences. Deeply informed yet highly readable, this magisterial book illumines a major turning-point in the history of human consciousness. It will be mandatory reading for all who appreciated The Pursuit of the Millennium.

Excerpt from Cosmos, Vol. 3 of 1: Sketch of a Physical Description of the Universe In pursuance of the aim which I had proposed to myself, as attainable in a degree commensurate with my own powers and with the present state of knowledge, I have considered Nature, in the two volumes of the Cosmos which We already appeared, in a twofold point of view. I have sought to represent her, first, in the pure objectivity of external phaenomena, and, next, as the reflex of the image received through the senses on the mirror of man's inner being, his ideas and feelings.

Excerpt from Cosmos a Sketch of a Physical Description of the Universe, Vol. 3 IN accordance with the Object I have proposed to myself, and which, as far as my own powers and the present state I of science permit, I have regarded as not unattainable, I have, in the preceding volumes of Cosmos. Considered Nature in a twofold point of view. In the first place, I have endeavoured to present her in the pure objectiveness of external phenomena; and, secondly, as the reflection of the image impressed by the senses upon the inner man, that is, upon his ideas and feelings.

To Galileo, among the Italians, is therefore due the merit of having first discovered these stars.
