Abstract
IN recent years, fundamental changes have taken place in all the assumptions upon which philosophical and religious discussions are based. The author makes the point that mechanistic physics by no means implies atheism and materialism as a necessary consequence; and that the so-called neutrality of science with regard to religious questions is no more an axiom of procedure. In fact, the old materialistic arguments, still put forward in free-thinking circles, will be found to be out-of-date doctrines in the light of a correct interpretation of the results of present-day science.
