298 HAS SCIENCE DISCOVERED GOD? 



Scientific theory is giving us a plausible idea of a 

 universal mind, something religion has not given us. 

 Research, in the last few years, has conferred on reli- 

 gion a dignity, a richness, an expanse it never had be- 

 fore. For those religionists who have ears to hear and 

 minds to comprehend, these new discoveries will touch 

 their faith with an unexampled sublimity. Together; 

 science with its knowledge, philosophy with its Inter- 

 pretation, and religion with its faith, may prove that, 

 after all, eternal purpose is eternal goodness. 



We are closer to the First Cause, and the purpose 

 back of creation, than we ever have been. The door is 

 ajar. It will swing back when all of us, philosophers, 

 scientists and religionists, submerge our prejudices in 

 a universal desire to know the truth.
