"God's Two Books;

OR

Plain Facts About Evolution, Geology, and the Bible"

Just issued. By George McCready Price, professor of Geology and Physics, Loma Linda (Cal.) Medical College, author of "Illogical Geology," etc.
Not long ago a clergyman in Wisconsin wrote to us in a taunting way, "Do you know of any college, or even high school, that amounts to anything, which is not teaching the doctrine of evolution?"
In our own minds we had to sadly confess that this teaching has become well-nigh universal throughout the civilized world. While not all teach the evolution of man from the lower animals, there are comparatively few to-day who doubt or question the long, successive ages of the modern evolutionary geology. The truth about geology is vital, and should be understood by all.
In a recent number of "Nature" (Jan. 19, 1911), the foremost botanist of England says that the modern evolutionary theory "had its roots in Lyell," the founder of modern geology; and he quotes another leading scientist to the effect that had it not been for Lyell and his theories of geology, "we should never have had the 'Origin of Species.'"
The present volume gives a summary, in easy, readable language, of the wonderful discoveries that have recently been made in the rocks of Europe and America, which have done so much to confirm the Bible record. To give but one instance: Just east of the Rocky Mountains, extending over one hundred miles in the southern part of Alberta, and running nearly another hundred miles down into Montana, is a tract of country, now known to be over a thousand square miles in area, where what are called pretty nearly the "youngest" rocks are underneath, and almost the very "oldest" are on top, and yet these rocks have every physical appearance of having been deposited just as we find them. But if they were really deposited in this order, the writings of Darwin and all his followers are only so much waste paper, and the evolution theory becomes a piece of elaborate nonsense. This is only one of the many modern discoveries mentioned in this book,—discoveries which are compelling some of the best scholars of our time to acknowledge that there must be something radically wrong with this system of geology that has so long been contradicting the first chapters of the Bible.
"GOD'S TWO BOOKS" is well illustrated, giving the portraits of most of the scientists mentioned in the book, with diagrams, pictures of fossils, etc. 184 pages; cloth, $1.
