Eternal Things
IF the soul could be seen by science it would not be worth seeing, for it would have been brought by it under the conditions of material things. It is the things that are not seen that are eternal. If physical science could demonstrate the nature of the soul, it would have subjected it to necessity, for science can deal only with necessary laws.
All the truths of science are dead things if they reach no further than science.
Knowledge is of things that perish, or rather have not begun really to exist. It is only as faith enters that life begins. The “great ages” are the ages of faith, in which men “do exploits.”
The universe of science could never compensate for the loss of the universe of religion. Infinite space, if it could be grasped, is less than the infinite in the Divine. Besides, we could only see the one, we can share the other.
