No breach of con- tinuity appearing anywhere among the aggregate ' C / of visual and tactual perceptions which its pre-, ( sence awakens in us, we are unable to restrain ourselves from imagining that its parts are everywhere in actual contact with each other. Nevertheless, a brief analysis of this opinion will suffice to show that it cannot be maintained without landing us in manifest absurdity. We need only recollect that every portion of matter is compressible, ? may be made to occupy less space than before, ? and that compressibility, implying the closer approach of the constituent particles of the body, is utterly out of the ques- tion, unless empty space exists between these particles. We are therefore obliged to admit that the molecules of which perceptible matter 1 See Introduction, 8.] XL, / is composed are not in immediate contact, but are separated from each other by enveloping tracts of unoccupied space. But no sooner do we seek refuge in this assumption than we are again met by difficulties no less insuperable than the one just noticed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Unseen World: And Other Essays A savage condition. The theories of the world wrought out by early priest - philosophers were in great part made up of such grotesque notions and having become variously implicated with ethical opinions as to the nature and couse quences Of right and wrong behaviour, they ac quired a kind of sanctity, SO that any thinker who in the light Of a Wider experience ventured to alter or amend the primitive theory was likely to be vituperated as an irreligious man or atheist. This sort of inference has not yet been wholly abandoned, even in civilized communi ties. Even to-day books are written about the conflict between religion and science, and other books are written with intent to reconcile the two presumed antagonists. But when we look beneath the surface of things, we see that in reality there has never been any conflict between religion and science, nor is any reconciliation called for where harmony has always existed. The real historical conflict, which has been thus curiously misnamed, has been the conflict be tween the more-crude opinions belonging to the science of an earlier age and the less-crude opin ions belonging to the science of a later age. In the course of this contest the more-crude opin ions have usually been defended in the name of religion, and the less-crude opinions have inva riably won the victory; but religion itself, which is not concerned with opinion, but With the as.
