WHAT will we do? One scientific professor thinks that so much tapping of the gas in the earth, which is a hollow sphere filled with gas, will cause a collapse, and the earth will be thrown from its orbit, and fall to pieces. Another thinks stringent laws ought to prohibit drilling the earth. An explosion might take place, and a great canal opened through the gas regions of Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky, "to the depth of 1,200 to 1,500 feet, and the earth flopped over like a pancake, leaving a chasm through which the waters of Lake Erie would come down, filling the Ohio and Mississippi valleys, and blotting them out forever." Still another says that under the gas field "an immense cavity exists, and that here the gas is stored; that a mile below the bottom of the cavity is a mass of roaring, seething flame, which is gradually eating into the rock floor of the cavern and thinning it. Eventually the flames will reach the gas, and a terrific explosion will ensue." All these theories will be believed by different persons, and some will believe them all who would reject the biblical account of the creation and the deluge, because it is controverted by such inaccurate and inconsistent scientists as these.
