Julian
Biology versus Theology. The Bible: irreconcilable with Science, Experience, and even its own statements
Transcribed from the 1871 George P. Bacon edition by David Price
"Biology versus Theology. The Bible: irreconcilable with Science, Experience,…" by Julian is a critical examination written in the late 19th century. This text aims to highlight the inconsistencies between biblical accounts and scientific understanding, particularly addressing how scriptures fail to align with established scientific principles and human experiences. At the start of the work, the author introduces the prominent theme of discord between the Bible and modern scientific knowledge, setting the stage for a detailed critique of various scriptural narratives. The opening argues against the validity of biblical creation stories, including the Mosaic cosmology and the accounts of the Ark, asserting they are fundamentally incompatible with established geological timelines and principles. Julian frames his discussions around the failures of scriptural claims to accurately depict historical and scientific truths, thereby questioning the intellectual and moral credibility of asserting the Bible as an authority in these domains.
