namely, does the semitic world re-
alize what it owes to religion-that
there is no deadly conflict between
religion and science, and / will
treat medical science, since every
one seemed to be captivated by this
department. in the Hall of Science.
Religion and medical science ap-
pear to me as two golden links in
the chain of human society, the for
mer caring for the spiritual well
fare of man, the latter, for the ply
sical.
There have been rumors from
time to time of a war between re-
ligion and science. The enemies Of
Christianity have endeavored to use
science as a weapon to kill the faith
in the hearts of the people. Science
has been painted to the world as the
Great Sunrise of a New Dawn" in
which those cropping in the "blind-
ness, slavery, darkness and super
stition of religion and its doc
trines, have been led out of the So
called desert of night. This is an
absolute falsehood from beginning
to end. There never has been a
war between religion and science
and furthermore there never will be,
as long as scientists remain in their
sciences-and cease their sinister
efforts to undermine the faith of
the followers of Jesus Christ, by
trying to give them faith built on
science-to accept a religion of
gilded brass in exchange for Christ's
religion of pure gold. Religion and
science are two different things
they each have their individual
sphere-both teach truths-the one
of the spiritual order-the other of
the physical. Truth cannot be op-
posed to truth.
When it was announced that
Fordham University was to open a
medical school, some years ago,
many intelligent physicians express
ed surprise that a Catholic school
should open a medical department,
as they understood that the church
was opposed to dissection, prohibit
ed the study of chemistry, and in
general was unfavorable to the de-
velopment of medical science. Such
a state of positive ignorance and
erroneous, pretentious knowledge
with regard to the attitude of re-
ligion toward medical science, was
due to a book written by doctor
named Andrew D. White, entitled
''The History of the Warfare of
Science with Theology in Christen-

ginning to end, and although writ

They stand awed while beholding
the great secrets wrested by scien-
fists from natures bosom. The So
called atheist CT say so-called be-
out and out atheist) thinks the Won
ders which he sees there accom-
plished by science, prove he is right;
but the atheist never stops to real
covers something new, he is not
telling God anything new He is
only finding out something that God
knew all the time. The atheist is a
slave to the physical, although he is
not aware of this fact He can
not bring himself to believe beyond
that which he can see, feel, touch
and hear. He cannot get hold of an
idea-vet while he can think, and
visualize, he cannot see the idea,
he cannot touch it-yet it exists.
The same with Truth, Goodness,
Justice, Beauty. Yet he knows these
things exist He cannot get ahold
OF electricity to analyze it, to cut it
up and find out what it is composed
Of. Yet it exists and he knows it
exists. 1t is the same with the i'm
mortal soul of man, created by God.
The atheist cannot get ahold of his
soul, cannot feel it, touch it, or see
it-yet it exists. 1t is the principle
of life which gives life to his body,
power to its organs to function,
without which his body would no
more function than a piece of de-
cayed wood 1t is these atheists
who have tried their hardest to
make the followers of Jesus Christ
believe that science is the Alpha
and Omega-the A and the z of all.
They have lied to the world and
have painted a false picture in their
charge that science has dug the
grave for religion, for it is a grave
into which the scientists themselves
fall, and religion goes onward and
onward to its final goal Atheistic
scientists are always tolling the bell
for religions funeral, and the corpse
never appears; they are always
prophesying religions death. but the
church moves amid their dust. And
it is this inspiration which / re-

ten by a doctor who perhaps was
very brilliant in medical science, in
pathology, therapeutics. anatomy
and surgery, still this book proves
that he knew absolutely nothing
about the history of medicine. 1t Is
impossible to read his book without
concluding that all through the
ages it has been the policy of the
church to prevent the progress of
medicine as far as possible. The
reason he gives is that the eccles-
iastics wanted the people to apply
to them for healing through prayers,
miracles and Masses for recovery,
thus it was to their financial inter
est to prevent the study and de-
velopment of medicine, as they had
to have a means of income. He
charges the ecclesiastics encouraged
the sufferers to look to miracles
rather than to drugs for relief.
Prayers were to be considered more
efficacious than powders, and Mass
es better than the best Of nursing.
To accomplish this, says DR.. White,
people had to be discouraged from
applying to physicians; medical
schools were kept under ecclesias-
tical ban, dissection was prohibited,
anatomy declared to be "a sin
against the Holy Ghost" chemistry
forbidden under severe penalties,
that the medieval miracles of heal
ing checked medical science, that
surgery was relegated to the lowest
orders of practitioners and con-
fined to them, and as the grasp of
medicine declined; that every pos
sible means was employed to keep
the popular mind in subsection to
| the clergy, and to prevent ply
sicians from getting so much knowl-
edge as would enable them to free
the people from the bondage of the
superstition of religion of which
they were the victims and slaves"
Such statements as these by DR..
White are absolute falsehOods, for
in the 10th century, against the
church, there were twenty medical
schools on the continent of Europe.
The best known of these were Saler-
no, Bologna, Naples, Montpelier,
Paris, Padua and Pisa. Also excel
lent schools established at oxford,
Rome. Salamanca, Orleans and
Coimbra. Even in the fourteenth
century, such little towns as Peru
gia, Cahors, and Lerida had their
medical schools, and the ordinary
scholar knows that the teachers in
the medieval universities were
churchmen

Religion and The Hall Of Science
At The Worlds Fair
By Rev. FIR. Preston

Dear Ray:-Tpon my return from
my recent trip to Chicago and the
Century of Progress Exposition. you
asked me if | would please write a
story of the impressions of my trip.
This / said | would do if | had
time. AS many of our people have
visited the exposition and several
more have written short sketches Of
the Worlds fair and what is to be
seen there, / don't think that I
could write anything which would
interest our people here in Morgan
county by treating the subject of
general outline of the far. as most
ly everybody by this time is ac-
quainted with news of this nature.
There isn't any doubt but that
the consensus Of opinion is that the
great Hall of Science is the most
outstanding spectacle of the Worlds
fair. 1t is a great gigantic display
of not only Century OF Progress in
the scientific fields, but really pic
ture of the centuries Of progress in
science. There we see a vast col
lection of medical exhibits. anatom-
ical displays, the transparent man
showing the various parts of the hu-
man body with its distinct physical
organs in operation To me as |
stood off awhile studying the crowd
as people anXiously pushed their
way here and there to this display
now to that l wondered how many
realized or knew how much this
great scientific display owed to re-
ligion. There were doctors, sur
geons, nurses, priests, ministers,
sisters, lawyers, school teachers.
scientists, mill workers, business
men in that crowd of pushing, shov-
ing humanity-now and then some
one would stop and study forawhile
some exhibit of particular interest,
of the mouth, brain, eye, ear, heart,
kidneys, gall bladder, stomach.
muscles, throat, nerves. etc. with
sober countenance and deem
thought. In the surglng crowds
were men and women of deep re-
ligious thought and conviction. and
there were so-called atheists and
agnostics. 1t is a great study of hu-
man nature to watch the reactions
OF crowd in hall of science.
