The History of the Conflict Between Religion and Science is a book written by John Draper that explores the historical relationship between religion and science. The book delves into the various ways in which religion and science have clashed throughout history, from the persecution of scientists who challenged religious beliefs to the rejection of scientific discoveries by religious authorities. Draper examines the role of religion in shaping scientific inquiry and the impact of scientific discoveries on religious beliefs. He also discusses the cultural and social factors that have contributed to the conflict between religion and science, and offers insights into how the two fields can coexist and even complement one another. Overall, The History of the Conflict Between Religion and Science provides a comprehensive overview of the complex and often contentious relationship between these two important aspects of human society.On the basis of this view of the structure of the world great religious systems have been founded, and hence powerful material interests have been engaged in its support. These have resisted, sometimes by resorting to bloodshed, attempts that have been made to correct its incontestable errors--a resistance grounded on the suspicion that the localization of heaven and hell and the supreme value of man in the universe might be affected.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
