Synopsis

Excerpt from Major Notes, Vol. 5: Winter, 1964

There were efforts to stamp out the new religion, he said, until the Edict of Milan was is'sued, giving Christianity status equal to paganism. This was ac complished in just under 300 years'. In the year 330 the city of Constantinople became the first externally Christian city when all signs of paganism were de stroyed and Christian basilicas were erected. This brought to an end the classical civilization and began a new one, one dominated by Christian culture.

In the year 1660 a sort of second Pentecost occurred when a band similar to the first gathered, bound by a new spirit and a new vision. The Royal Society of London was founded. By 1860 science was here to stay. In 1945 came the acknowledgement, the second Edict of Milan, that this is the scientific age. By 1960 there were national laboratories and great facilities, the out ward change similar to the change at Constantinople. The remainder of this century should be the Golden Age of Science.
