Excerpt from Theology and Science
I hardly need say that this is the very con dition in which the controversies of science and theology are maintained; that they arise, as from time immemorial they have arisen, in inferences from imperfect knowledge. In science this imperfection is evident to every one who knows anything at all. All scientific men would agree that their increasing knowledge has always brought them to a larger view of the unknown; all would admit the justice of the common illustration that as they have ascended the hill so have they seen, however dimly, more of the distant valleys and streams not yet explored. I suppose it is the same with theologians. You will all say We see as in a glass, darkly; we know in part that even revelation is incomplete and the understanding of it very limited by the utter imperfection of human language for the ex pression of the mind of God.
