Project Gutenberg 2009-03-04 Public domain in the USA. 427 Miller, Hugh 1802 1856 The Testimony of the Rocks or, Geology in Its Bearings on the Two Theologies, Natural and Revealed E-text prepared by Marilynda Fraser-Cunliffe, Greg Bergquist, and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team "The Testimony of the Rocks" by Hugh Miller is a scientific work written in the mid-19th century. This book explores the relationship between geology and theology, engaging with both natural and revealed theology. It aims to reconcile geological findings with biblical accounts of creation using Miller's deep insights into geological history, particularly that of Scotland. The opening of the text sets the stage for Miller's exploration of palaeontology, presenting it as a field that encompasses the study of ancient life forms across geological periods. It emphasizes the complexity of life’s history, advocating for a systematic classification akin to both natural sciences and the divine order. Miller indicates that the understanding of geological epochs can reveal truths about design and purpose in creation, which he plans to elaborate on through discussions of both fossilized plants and animals in the lectures that follow. This introduction highlights his intent to bridge the gap between scientific inquiry and faith, promising an engaging discourse that appeals to both scientific and theological audiences.
