Book Description
Excerpt from The Scripture Doctrine of Creation: With Reference to Religious Nihilism and Modern Theories of Development That the glorious universe we see around us is the work Of an Almighty Creator, the true and living God, is taught in the first sentence Of the Bible, and affirmed throughout all the later books Of Scripture. It holds the foremost place in the two main creeds Of the Christian Church, and is there taught in the words, I believe in One God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible. The Law, the Psalms, and the Prophets, abound in testimonies to this great truth. It is declared strongly and plainly in the Gospels and Epistles Of the New Testament, and is proclaimed anew in the song Of the heavenly elders, and in the oath Of the mighty Angel, in that great prophecy which crowns and completes the written messages of God.

Book Description
Thomas Rawson Birks was a Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge and a senior professor of philosophy. This book was first published in 1872, the year of his appointment to the prestigious Knightbridge Professorship. As an active Anglican clergyman, Birks engaged energetically in many heated theological controversies. In the Victorian debates on the relationship between religion and science he took a strongly anti-Darwinian stance, declaring that the theory of evolution contradicted the doctrine of creation and could not explain the mystery of life. In other areas, however, he argued that the findings of science confirmed the glory of God, since 'the telescope reveals the grandeur and vastness of the starry worlds' and 'the microscope discovers marks of design and beauty' which are evidence of a supreme designer. His influential evangelical views are expressed in this book, which argues for scripture as the ultimate key to the mystery of existence.

THE ALLEGED LAW OF SCIENTIFIC PROGRESS. One main argument in favour of Religious Nihilism, or the doctrine that Theology is a wholly barren and impossible science, is drawn from M. Comte's famous law of scientific progress. Every science, it is affirmed, tends to pass on to its full perfection by three stages, the Theological, the Metaphysical, and the Positive. In the first stage, natural phenomena are referred to deities, or supernatural powers; in the second to entities, or metaphysical abstractions, such as cause, force, substance, vital power. But, in the third and last stage; Science outgrows the swaddling clothes of metaphysics and theology, and confines itself to the classification of phenomena, and to that alone. It groups these together by a cautious induction, and thus detects laws of their recurrence, which may serve for the guidance of our daily life. Such a law, when made the basis of ascheme of philosophy, should rest either on a very wide collection of historical facts, or else on some proved necessity in the nature of human thought. But an induction, which should analyze the course of every science from the earliest ages, not only in its actual advance, but in the mental conceptions of its students, and the methods used in its discoveries, reducing the action of ten thousand minds, for thousands of years, on twenty different subjects, to one general law, is too wide and vast for any human mind to undertake with success. It is easy, however, to, cast any number of facts into the mould of some preconceived idea. This is precisely what M. Comte has done. He starts with a ready-made theory, with which all the facts, by some means or other, must be made to agree. His alleged law is no result at all of careful inductions that have slowly led to i, ..
