Beskrivelse af A History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom V1
""A History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom V1"" is a book written by Andrew Dickson White. This book provides a detailed account of the conflict between science and theology in the Christian world throughout history. The author explores how the teachings of the Bible and the beliefs of the Church have often clashed with the discoveries and advancements made by scientists. White examines the ways in which religious institutions have attempted to suppress scientific progress and how this has impacted the development of science in the Western world. The book covers a vast range of topics, including the Galileo affair, the rise of Darwinism, and the debates surrounding the theory of evolution. It also delves into the history of the Church's opposition to scientific discoveries, such as the belief in a heliocentric universe and the acceptance of the theory of natural selection. Overall, ""A History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom V1"" is a comprehensive and informative exploration of the complex relationship between science and religion in the Christian world.1896.

The author's purpose is to aid in letting the light of historical truth into that decaying mass of outworn thought which attaches the modern world to mediaeval conceptions of Christianity and which still lingers among us, a most serious barrier to religion and morals and a menace to the whole normal evolution of society.
