Gillespie uses this method of reasoning to argue for the existence of a supreme being and to explore the attributes that this being possesses. The book provides a detailed analysis of the philosophical arguments for the existence of God, including the ontological argument, the cosmological argument, and the teleological argument. Gillespie also discusses the attributes of God, such as omniscience, omnipotence, and benevolence, and explores how these attributes relate to the idea of a perfect being. The book is written in a clear and concise style, making it accessible to both students and scholars of philosophy. Overall, ""Argument of a Priori for the Being and the Attributes"" is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the nature of God and the arguments for his existence.1910. After reading books published by Hume and Clarke, the author began a scientific process of independent inquiry into the existence of God. He gradually concentrated his attention on what he believed to be the best methods of proof. Finally adopting a method never before attempted, he started from the propositions, acknowledged by Atheists and Theists alike, that there is Infinity of Extension and Infinity of Duration. This book is the fruits of his inquiries and examination.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
