Description
God and Science by John W Doorly
This was conceived as a non-sectarian treatise addressed to unbiased thinkers prepared to consider that there is a universal spiritual Science underlying the Bible and permeating all experience.
John Doorly wrote this book because he believed that there was a need to introduce the Science of Christian Science in an undenominational form. At that time there was a great seeking in the world for a way in which science and religion could be wedded, and indeed the search has continued unabated.
This book takes the days of creation at the beginning of the Bible and puts them forward as the fundamental “root notions of reality” for which the philosopher Leibnitz was searching. It then shows how these spiritual fundamentals appear throughout the Scriptures, constituting a universal, timeless Science of being, existing beyond creed and dogma, all-embracing in its appeal and essentially demonstrable. The familiar Old Testament stories of the creation, Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Moses and Joshua take on a new meaning and importance when interpreted in this light.
Spiritual educators and thinkers have found God and Science deeply interesting and challenging.
