Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from De Quibus Discourses and Essays The largest and most important part of this book consists of discourses addressed by me, from time to time, to the classes of the Medical College of Virginia. The very kind reception they met with from the students leads me to believe that my pupils will value them in a permanent form, and this is one of my reasons for collecting and printing them. In these discourses frequent notice is taken of the relations of science with theology. My attitude in this matter, often incorrectly apprehended, has excited against me much misrepresentation, vituperation and anger, and a desire that the fair-minded among my critics may accurately know what I said, how I said it, and why I said it, is another and a weighty reason for this publication. The assaults upon me were originated by the lecture styled Science and the Soul. I think that every candid reader of this discourse will admit that where it touches current religious beliefs it is singularly temperate and conciliatory. Yet it aroused attacks of remarkable virulence. Naturally, I rebelled against this rude response to my civility, and T felt justified in subsequent discourses in expressing my opinions with plainness and decision, and, on occasion, with emphasis, and even with aggressiveness. The accusations which I regard as best entitled to notice are that I have taught that science is in conflict with religion and is incompatible with it, and that science impugns the existence of God. All these accusations are unjust. I have taught none of these things. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
