Synopsis
Excerpt from Geology and Mineralogy Considered With Reference to Natural Theology, Vol. 2 of 2
It is unnecessary here to give detailed descriptions of the 28 divisions of the Stratified Rocks-represented in our Sec tion. Their usual Order of Succession and Names are ex pressed m their respective places, and detailed descriptions of their several characters may be found in all good Trea tises on Geology.
The leading Groups of Formations are united by colours, marking their separation from the adjacent groups; and the same colours are repeated, in the headings above the figures of Plants and Animals, that characterize the several series of Formations, to shew the extent of the strata over which the Organic Remains of each Group are respectively dis tributed.
The Formations of Peat Bogs and Calcareous Tufa are of too local 9. Nature to be included in the series of stratified Rocks represented in this Section; although they Me times operate locally to a considerable extent, in adding permanent and solid matter to the surface of the Globe.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the relationship between geology and religious belief. The author argues that geological discoveries such as the vast age of the Earth, and the existence of extinct species such as dinosaurs, should not be seen as incompatible with the existence of God. Rather, they provide an opportunity to reflect on the nature of God and the ways in which he has interacted with the world. The author also explores the ethical implications of geology, arguing that our understanding of the Earth's history should inform our decisions about how we use its resources. This is an important book for anyone interested in the relationship between science and religion. It offers a thoughtful and nuanced perspective on a complex and often controversial topic.
