Excerpt from An Examination of Certain Recent Assaults on Physical Science
But how does Dr. Dabney apply all this to the subject of his discourse? In a most remarkable way - by nicknaming physi cal science vain, deceitful philosophy. Although the false ind deadly philosophy which is spoken of by St. Paul con fessedly had no observed facts for its foundation, while physical science is based exclusively upon facts which any one may verify for himself; and although in the former case the fantastic guesses were woven into a fanciful and visionary scheme in defiance of reason, while physical science arranges its facts and deduces inferences from them in accordance with intuitive prin ciples which are believed by all - yet Dr. Dabney warns us against physical science because the philosophy which was seek ing to spoil the Colossians was vain and deceitful l It is as if one should prove to us the deceitful and deadly character of the Christian religion by depicting to us the abominable rites of some ancient Pagan religion, or the absurdities and atrocities of false religions which still enslave myriads of our race in the dark places in the earth. It is even worse; for there is no religion so utterly false that it does not contain some truths taught by Christianity; but physical science has not one single point in common with that with which Dr. Dabney classes it. He could not possibly have made a greater mistake than he has done in regarding as similar two things which are so utterly unlike.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book critically examines the relationship between Physical Science and Biblical truth, through the lens of former arguments made by the author over a number of years. The author views Physical Science as a threat to Christianity and believes that the study of the natural world inevitably leads to skepticism and a rejection of religious faith. They argue that the scientific method cannot be used to understand the origins of the universe or the nature of God, and that any attempt to do so undermines the authority of Scripture. The author supports their argument by examining specific examples of scientific theories that they believe conflict with Biblical teachings, such as the theory of evolution and the Big Bang theory. They contend that these theories are based on speculation and conjecture, and that they cannot be reconciled with the literal interpretation of the Bible. The book concludes by arguing that the only way to protect Christianity from the threat of Physical Science is to reject the scientific method and to embrace a more traditional, faith -based approach to understanding the world. The author insists that the rejection of preconceived notions, especially those with a basis in Christianity, leads to a path of atheism and despair. They urge readers to rely on faith and the teachings of the Bible, rather than on the ever-changing conclusions of science.
