Oxford, of which he became a See also:scholar. He took his B.A. degree in 184o, and was soon afterwards made See also:fellow of his college. He was ordained in 1842, and worked as a See also:curate at Cuddesdon. In 1847 he was made See also:tutor of his college, and in 1853 he delivered the See also:Bampton lectures, his subject being " The Atoning See also:Work of See also:Christ viewed in Relation to some See also:Ancient Theories." These thoughtful and learned lectures established his reputation and did much to clear the ground for subsequent discussions on the subject. Thomson's activity was not confined to See also:theology. He was made fellow of the Royal and the Royal See also:Geographical See also:Societies. He also wrote a very popular Outline of the See also:Laws of Thought. He sided with the party at Oxford which favoured university reform, but this did not prevent him from being appointed See also:provost of his college in 1855• In 1858 he was made preacher at See also:Lincoln's See also:Inn and there preached some striking sermons, a See also:volume of which he published in 1861. In the same See also:year he edited See also:Aids to Faith, a volume written in opposition to Essays and Reviews, the progressive sentiments of which had stirred up a See also:great See also:storm in the See also:- CHURCH

Church of See also:England. In See also:December 1861 he was rewarded with the see of See also:Gloucester and See also:Bristol, and within a twelvemonth he was elevated to the archiepiscopal see of York. In this position his moderate orthodoxy led him to join Archbishop See also:Tait in supporting the Public See also:Worship Regulation See also:Act, and, as See also:president of the See also:northern See also:convocation, he came frequently into See also:sharp collision with the See also:lower See also:house of that See also:body. But if he thus incuned the hostility of the High Church party among the See also:clergy, he was admired by the laity for his strong sense, his clear and forcible reasoning, and his wide knowledge, and he remained to the last a See also:power in the See also:north of England. In his later years he published an address read before the members of the See also:Edinburgh Philosophical Institution (1868), one on See also:Design in Nature, for the See also:Christian See also:Evidence Society, which reached a fifth edition, various charges and See also:pastoral addresses, and he was one of the projectors of The See also:Speaker's Commentary, for which he wrote the " Introduction to the Synoptic Gospels." He died on the 25th of December 1890.
