The world has been hearing too much of sup
posed conflict between Science and the Bible 1t is
time to assert and maintain their positive har-
mony. AS matter Of fact. there is not. and never
has been, any real conflict between them. The
only conflict has been between some wrong induc
tion from nature and some false Interpretation of
Scripture, between the hypothesis of scientists
and the dogmas of divines. Whenever these two
have clashed and fallen TO the ground naturally
enough there has been rude shock to the faith
of all who had identified their favorte dogma with
the Bible and clothed 1t with the divine authority
of inspiration. But, later. 1t has been
found that Scripture was misinterpreted well
nature, and that true Interpretation of both of
them disclosed their perfect agreement. In other
words, while scientific hypothesis and religious
tenets often discordant. the established facts
OF science and the essential truths Of revelation
in absolute harmony.
The history OF science in it's connections with
the Bible is full of these conflicts between the

toric period. The correspondence. it will be seen,
is at least logical if not chronological On the
one hand. geology clearly indicates that there
have been successive periods of energetic evolution
ending in period of repose and order; and on the
other hand. the Bible declares that i'm six days God
created the heavens and the earth. and rested from
his works on the seventh day. Geology also tells
US of a primitive watery globe. whose glaciers and
foundations have ceased since the appearance of
man: and the Bible also. after the deluge speaks
of covenant between Jehovah and the earth for
mans sake. that summer and winter and seedtime
and harvest shall not cease. Geology still hints of
interior fires which might any time burst forth

all the works that therein shall be burned up
You may say that this teaching OF the Bible Is
religious rather than scientific; that is not the
point-whatever IL be- il is in harmony with ge

GEOLOGY AND THE BIBLE.

The next seeming conflict was between geology
and the Bible. 1t is certain that Moses did not
speak as a man of science in his dramatic vision
the creation when he described the heavens and
the earth land. sea and sky. plants. animals and
man. as produced by divine commands in six work
ing days. ending in seventh day of rest The
early biologists. however. accepted this sublime
vision as a scientific cOsmogOny. and nke-mnded
divines followed them, magnfying such creative
miracles as the formation of the terraqueous globe
in twenty-four hours. the arrangement of its sea
sons and climates between a single sunrise and
sunset and the marshalling of its vegetable and
animal kingdoms by divine flats from Monday
morning until Saturday night in the autumn of the
year 1904 B. 9. Here again the argument absurd
as 1t now lacked scientific content ra ther
than logical form. 1t is within living memory what
a shock ensued when that scientific content was
furnished and it discovered that the earth is
of indefinite antiquity. that it's continents have
emerged from its through long ages of sub
sidence- and that successive dynasties of plants
and animals have hourished and decayed. leaving
only a. few fossil remains in its crust. The very
doctrines of the creation and the Sabbath itself
seemed directly assailed, and the defence of them
was fierce and desperate. The geologists were not
prosecuted Calico and Bruno; but the most ex-
traordnary makeshifts were devised TO evade their
conclusions II was intrepidly declared that the
Almighty created the earth in stratihed form
with all it's fossils as trial of our faith
II was ngeniousIy surmised that the whole pre-
historic geology a chapter omitted in Gene

II was even fancied that the six days works

perods could no longer be denied they were forced
into correspondence with the Mosaic days con-
ceived as DAYS of jehovah with whom thousand

reconciliation were proposed by such distinguished
eeoiovis,s as Hugh Miller. Dawson. Dana and

rists have since made themselves merry Never
