"The Neptunian, or Water Theory of Creation" by J. M. Woodman is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The work presents an alternative perspective on the origins of the earth and the cosmos, specifically advocating the Neptunian theory, which posits that water plays a central role in the creation of all matter. Woodman scrutinizes existing theories of creation and geology, articulating his arguments through a blend of scientific exploration and biblical interpretation. At the start of the book, Woodman sets the stage for a deep examination of the theories of creation, focusing on the Plutonic theory and the recently emerging Neptunian theory. He critiques the established notions of a heated, fiery origin of the earth, suggesting that evidence from geology supports a cold, water-centric model of creation. Woodman emphasizes the need for a harmonious understanding of scripture and science, suggesting that the biblical narrative of creation reflects a reality that is consistent with geological findings, laying the groundwork for what he believes will be a significant shift in cosmological thought.
