Excerpt from The Bible and Rationalism or Answer to Difficulties, Vol. 4: In the Mosaic Cosmogony, Anthropology, and Biblical Chronology

The science OF geology. - Geology is a science which has for object the knowledge of the form of the earthly globe, of the nature of the materials that compose it, of the manner these materials were formed and placed in their actual situation. Lithology, pale ontology, and stratigraphy are three important branches of geology all three concur to the establishment of a complete and exact description of the globe: this purely descriptive part is designated in its whole under the name of geognosy. The studies having for object the explanation of the observed facts, the inquiry of the causes and origins, in one word, the history of the geological world, form a second great division of geology: the geogony. By means of the acquired certitudes, by the authentication of the results, geology seeks to explain in a theoretical manner the nature of the phenomena to which they are due, to determine the order in which they produced themselves, and to assign to them a sort Of date, and to fix their probable duration.
