About this book
History of the Conflict Between Religion and Science is a work by John William Draper. The preface says that anyone acquainted with the mental condition of the intelligent classes in Europe and America must have perceived that there is a great and rapidly-increasing departure from the public religious faith. The text says Alexander crossed the Hellespont into Asia in the spring B.C. 334 with an army of thirty-four thousand foot and four thousand horse.
The text says Alexander had to march his army as far north as the Danube to quell some disturbances, and that on his return he took Thebes by assault. The text says Bruno may be considered among philosophical writers as intermediate between Averroes and Spinoza. The text says the stumbling-block to the progress of Europe has been its dual system of government, with every nation having two sovereigns, a temporal one at home and a spiritual one in a foreign land.
