Those who still view the Bible as a divinely inspired book, despite the repeated attacks made on its authenticity and inspiration, as well as those who yet hold to the teachings of their faith, notwithstanding the theories of a certain school of scientists, who relegate religion and belief in a personal God to the limbo of idle fancies, are frequently accused of forswearing their liberty of thought, and of voluntarily placing themselves in a condition of intellectual thraldom which incapacitates them from appreciating the true significance of the most important inductions and generalizations of modern science. Groundless as this charge is, there are not a few, even among intelligent people, who believe it to be substantially true. And yet nothing could be more false or absurd. As well say that the mariner forfeits his freedom of action because, forsooth, he gives heed to the buoys and lighthouses which are stationed along his course, and which signalize reefs and shoals and indicate places where the safety of his vessel would be imperilled or where navigation is impossible. What buoys and lighthouses are to the seafaring man, that expressions of revealed truth and principles of Christian philosophy are to the man of science.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex relationship between Church teachings and scientific discovery, challenging the notion that these two realms are inherently incompatible. It examines the concept of inherent oneness between truth and science and thoroughly analyzes key questions surrounding science and faith, including the Mosaic Hexaemeron, the Noachian Deluge, and the biblical chronology. By examining contrasting views, the author skillfully demonstrates that Church teachings have consistently supported scientific inquiry and the pursuit of intellectual freedom. This approach sheds light on the harmony between scientific exploration and religious belief, and underscores the significance of faith as a guiding force in understanding the natural world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
