Science Falsely So Called

The Sunday law is to be a feature in the affairs of Dallas, Texas. A press despatch of July 15 quotes the sheriff as saying: "From this day on I will enforce the Sunday law to the letter. I mean by this that it will apply to every special form of violation. Baseball games, summer theater, billiard and pool rooms and cigar stores, vegetable venders, and cold-drink stands are all included." At the county attorney's office it was declared that if the sheriff makes arrests the cases will be prosecuted.

It is putting God down pretty low to say that He could not consciously produce living creatures by creation, when the same could come by some "accidental chemical action" in a primordial wood or swamp. But that is just what some "scientists" do. And such learning is part of the wisdom dispensed in some of our larger colleges and universities—notably the Chicago University and the University of California. When "grasshoppers" (Isa. 40:22) set up their wisdom against the Word of God, and assume to tell us what the mighty Hand that controls the universe can or can not do, it is time to look elsewhere for knowledge. "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; a good understanding have all they that do His commandments." Ps. 111:10. "Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom." Col. 3:16.
