Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catholic Science and Catholic Scientists This volume is-composed of articles, revised and augmented, which originally appeared, the first two in the Ave Maria, the last two in the American Cal/zo/z'c Quarterly srez/iew. They are republished in book form in response to numerous requests from patrons of the Catholic Summer School, from members of various Reading Circles, and from distinguished representatives of the hie rarchy. The object of the book, as will appear from its perusal, is to exhibit in a brief compass the relation of the Church to science, and to show that, in the words of Cardinal Newman, Relig ious truth is not only a portion but a condition of knowledge; that there is not, and cannot be, a conflict between real science and true religion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What Catholics Have Done for Science: With Sketches of the Great Catholic Scientists The purpose of this little book is, by showing their utter-falsity, to refute two wide-spread notions. One of these notions is, that when a man devotes himself to science he must necessarily cease to be a Christian; and the other, that the Catholic Church is hostile to scientific progress.

This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twelve Catholic Men of Science The object of these biographies is to demonstrate the fact, unknown apparently to many critics of the Church, that there are numerous stars of science (and many more than this series includes) who were also devout Catholics, and found no difficulty in maintaining both positions simultaneously. It ought to be superfluous to maintain such a thesis, and it would be so if persons who propagate such accusations as are made against the Catholic Church would, first of all, investigate the facts of the case. But, as the statement has been made, it may be well to give some definite examples of the co existence in the same individual of scientific enthusiasm and reputation -with a steadfast attachment to the doctrines of the Catholic Church.

Download or read book The Catholic Church and Science Classic Reprint written by Catholic Truth Society and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Catholic Church and Science We are all familiar with the term "Agnosticism," and recognize the attitude of mind which it denotes as the most formidable antagonist of Christianity at the present day. It must therefore seriously claim the attention of all who would not only preserve the treasure of their own souls unimpaired, but likewise render assistance to the multitude of their fellows, within and without the Church, who, as one of these latter not long ago expressed it to me, are suffering from the sickness of bewildered faith. But, frequently as the term is employed, it is very doubt ful whether the great majority of those who use it to describe even their own position, attribute to it its proper and legitimate sense, and accordingly in order to discuss the question, it behoves us first to make sure what it is that we are talking about. There can, 1 think, be little doubt that very many of those who style themselves "Agnostics" signify that they are atheists, that they deny the existence of God, believing it to have been disproved by the discoveries of modern science, which, in the words of M. Caro, conducts God with honour to its frontiers, thanking Him for His provisional services, which it finds no longer required. This creed is often called "Agnosticism," but it is not that to which the title should be applied. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catholic Churchmen in Science: Sketches of the Lives of Catholic Ecclesiastics Who Were Among the Great Founders in Science There has recently been question of the foun dation of an Institute for the Study of the His tory of Science. 'its realization has, alas! Been delayed, as have so many other important intel lectual developments, by the great war which absorbs nearly all energy and attention. I think that very probably the articles contained in this little volume may serve to emphasize how much such an institution is needed. We have been so intent in the past on the history of war and politics that we have sadly neglected the ordered story of man's great constructive achievements. None of these has been more neglected than the history of science, that is, man's thoughtful efforts to penetrate with the human means at his command the meaning of man's life and the uni verse in which he lives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes of a Catholic Biologist Various writers have consulted the book of Nature for the purpose of emphasizing some fundamental idea or theory, and in this manner have commanded the attention of the general reader. But their viewpoint does not always meet with approval, and very Often the serious minded have protested most vehemently against the peculiar interpretation of the facts. The mode of reasoning proves unsatisfactory because a spurious code was employed in the procedure. Such works may be compared to the endeavors of a great scientist of the 17th century, who in all sincerity deciphered the hieroglyphs of the Egyptian obelisks in Rome according to the then prevalent standards of interpretation. Although his rendition was plausible and scholarly, sub sequent events showed that it was far from the truth. It was only after the year 1799, when the Rosetta stone was discovered, that the real signifi cance of the inscriptions became manifest.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Noted Catholic Men of Science Further if one studies the history of this case one will find that Galileo was an exceedingly unpleasant t) pe of person. He was one of those men who arouse everybody's antagonism. Just a few years after advancing the geo centric theory he advanced the opposite theory. Further his proofs were inadequate; indeed it was not until one hundred years after his death that complete proof of his theory came into the possession of scientific men.\nother point raised in this connection is that of the imprimatur too long to deal with now and fully discus sed by me in one of my books. On this I will only say that a layman is not in any way obliged to ask for an imprima tur for his books. I do not know what rules apply to the clergy, but only once have I applied for one though I have written several books on Catholic matters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Science and the Catholic Faith: Including a Brief Account of New Thought and Other Modern Mental Healing Movements Why deal once more with Christian Science? With so many works already on the market, why increase the output by an other study on this much debated subject? Christian Science will run its course, as other systems of thought, once much in evidence, have run theirs, and will not be materially influenced by the discussions to which it has given rise. Yet to discuss the subjects of the day is an intellectual need. The process of winnowing out truth from error must go on without interrup tion, the more so in this case, as Christian Science skims over many subjects of the very highest importance, opening up to controversial minds fair vistas of debatable ground. But why associate New Thought with its traditional foe? The answer must be sought in the treatise itself, which makes plain that, whatever minor differences there may be between these two organizations, their wider aims and common pursuits unite them in a clearly defined group, and blend together natu rally in a common discussion.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church and Science On the other hand, no attempt has been made to minim ise the teachings of the Church, nor is it denied that there are points where her teaching and the theories of certain men of science come into direct conflict. But a further object of the book is to make it clear that these are theories, at present unproved and perhaps insusceptible of convine ing poof that scores and scores of such theories have been put forward and will continue to be put forward; that scores and scores of them have been thrown on the scrap heap of abandoned ideas, whither others will follow them and that the believer in Christianity may possess his soul in patience, well aware that no theory which is really in opposition to revelation can be true.

Book excerpt: The tragic conflict between men of faith and men of science has its origins in a false notion of history: a notion that the Middle Ages stultified scientific exploration and scholarship. French scientist Pierre Duhem dedicated his life to examining this problem. For years, however, his works were inaccessible to English- speaking scholars. Stanley Jaki makes available for the first time a systematic treatment of Duhem's work along with twenty seven selections (in English translation) from his writings. This book is a powerful testimony to the unity of faith and reason.
