Abstract
In defining the scope of our paper, we have tried to hold before us several very general objectives. In accordance with our thesis we shall, of course, treat the religious speculations of the above named philosophers. We shall nevertheless also show the roots of the respective systems from which these speculations take their source. We shall also attempt to show the endeavors of harmonizing-if the expression may be pardoned-religio-philosophic thought with the substrata of revealed religion together with the fact of and cause for the inevitable failure of such attempts. And finally, we hope to point out on the basis of our study a definite and constructive value accruing from philosophico-religious study. We shall, however, despite objectives, endeavor to assume an entirely objective attitude in the presentation of the subject matter, leaving the facts in the case to speak for themselves.
