Q. E. D., or New Light on the Doctrine of Creation by George McCready Price

Description

Q.E.D., or New Light on the Doctrine of Creation by George McCready Price is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book explores the contrasting theories of Creation and Evolution, examining the implications of each on the origins of the world and life. Price aims to discuss how modern science can support the biblical account of Creation and why he believes that traditional scientific views on evolution are flawed. At the start of the text, the author reflects on the revolutionary changes brought about by the events of World War I and how they have challenged long-standing scientific beliefs. He asserts that there are fundamentally two theories concerning the origins of the world: Creation, which posits a direct act of God, and Evolution, which relies on the continuity of natural laws over time. Price introduces terms such as uniformity in relation to Evolution and emphasizes the distinct nature of Creation as a divine act that cannot be fully understood by human measures. He argues that contemporary science is increasingly discrediting evolutionary theories while supporting the view of a past miraculous Creation, setting the framework for his detailed exploration in the chapters to come.
