Abstract
A manuscript draft by Edward Hitchcock of some lectures included in his work "The Religion of Geology and its Connected Sciences." This section contains part of the eleventh lecture, a lecture labeled as the twelfth that is printed as the thirteenth in the final published work, and the fourteenth lecture. Hitchcock discusses the relationship between religion and geology while also discussing the relationship between religion and science in general. These lectures focus on the future destruction and renovation of the earth, God's plans and how man's understanding of them has changed over time, and the idea that scientific truth and religious truth are one in the same when correctly understood.
