In 1898 Lawrence Cole submitted The Basis of Early Christian Theism
as partial fulfillment for the requirements for a PhD in Philosophy
at Columbia University. Theism is a doctrine concerning the nature
of God and his relationship to the universe. God is seen as
personal and active in the organization of the Universe. Cole
begins by saying, "In accounts of the theistic argument, as in the
history of philosophy in general, it has been customary to pass
over a space of well-nigh ten centuries of the Christian era in
silence, or with such scanty and unsympathetic notice as to make
silence the better alternative. Largely through the influence of
such treatment as this, we moderns have almost forgotten at times
that during this period there lived men inferior to none in history
in endowments of mind and influence on succeeding generations, and
that there then took place some of the most significant and
far-reaching intellectual conflicts in the history of thought."
