The Irreconcilable Records: Or Genesis And Geology (1871)

By William Denton

Book Overview

The Irreconcilable Records: Or Genesis And Geology is a book written by William Denton in 1871. The book deals with the conflict between the biblical account of creation and the scientific theories of geology. Denton argues that the two accounts are irreconcilable and that the biblical account should not be taken as literal truth. He examines the geological evidence for the age of the earth and the development of life, and compares it to the biblical timeline. Denton also discusses the history of religious interpretations of the Bible and the role of science in shaping our understanding of the natural world. The book was controversial at the time of its publication, as it challenged traditional religious beliefs and sparked debates about the relationship between religion and science. Today, it is considered a landmark work in the history of the conflict between science and religion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
