Description - The Ascent of Faith Or The Grounds of Certainty in Science and Religion by Alexander James Harrison

The Ascent of Faith Or The Grounds of Certainty in Science and Religion is a book written by Alexander James Harrison. It explores the relationship between science and religion and argues for the compatibility of the two. The book delves into the concept of faith and how it is not necessarily at odds with scientific reasoning. Harrison argues that both science and religion are grounded in a search for truth and that they complement each other in the quest for understanding the world around us. The book also discusses the limitations of science and the importance of faith in filling in the gaps where science cannot provide answers. Overall, The Ascent of Faith Or The Grounds of Certainty in Science and Religion is a thought-provoking read that challenges readers to reconsider their beliefs about the relationship between science and religion.1893.
