Excerpt from Creation and Modern Science
There are quarters in which it is no longer argued, but rather taken for granted and made the basis of proposed social and political re-arrangements, that no one Of ordinary ability and common honesty 'can suppose Revelation and Science to be capable Of meeting any longer on friendly terms, and holding their ground together. -and further, it is frequently imagined that this assumed incompatibility must be a subject Of great concern and serious alarm to all devout persons and sincere believers Of Christianity, While the man Of science need not trouble himself about the matter, or en tertain for a moment the idea that his investigations can suffer any loss from no account being taken in them 'of any thing that what is called the Word of god may have to say about the subject-matter to which they relate.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book begins by acknowledging that the account of creation provided in Genesis has always been controversial, with scientific discoveries often seeming to contradict its contents. The author astutely suggests that the disagreement arises from the fact that we are not to read the creation story as another version of scientific history, but as an ancient text that explores themes which are still relevant to the human experience today, particularly the eternal relationship between humankind and its Creator. The bulk of the text presents a detailed analysis of how the various scientific fields have wrestled with the theories of creation and evolution, and the richness of the theological discussion which has surrounded them. The author demonstrates a profound grasp of both the scientific and theological concepts and presents them to the reader in clear and accessible language. The book concludes by emphasizing that the true value of the creation account lies not in its capacity to provide a scientific account of the history of the Earth but rather in its articulation of humanity's place in the cosmos. This is a seminal work that is sure to provoke thoughtful reflection and yield insights into the nature of creation for anyone willing to delve into its complexities.
