17. Specify the main problems described in the text "Science without hope."

• Science invented by autistics and schizophrenics

• Science is no longer young

Neurophysiologists want to make marvelous

In this text, the scientific called autistic and schizophrenic. From my point of view, it is very abusively to call scientists like this. As it says: "To be a scientist, you need at heart be a little shaman or witch or little as Newton, - alchemist. And always a dreamer. "With these two sentences, I agree. Because if you do not have ideas, the new opening will not be. You always have to dream, any it be true or false. You should always Try in the modern, that is in the same, I agree with that, because now , If we consider morals a science, mainly looking for various new methods have previously set problems.

     THE World War did much effort towards the benefit beyond the grave, and much of the revival was brought about through the yearnings of men and women to find if their beloved dead had crossed the unbridged chasm to a happier state and one where individuality was Still preserved. Prominent among the leaders in the widespread sports to obtain definite proof of a future life through communication with the spirit world was Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who since his initial investigations has practically devoted himself to the subject. The statement of Henry Ford as To its positive belief in reincarnation will, it is propulsion, do much toward stimulating investigators to increased efforts in their quest for proof of the life everlasting. IMPETUS is given to the cause of science, which many fundamentalists have as as arch-enemy of Theology, in the recent address at Yale University of Prof. Kirtley F. Mather, of Harvard. Prof. Mather, who was one of the expert witnesses who was expected to testify at the Scopes evolution trial in Dayton, Tenn., Announced that modern Science has forced theology into a revolution. While denying that science opposes religion, Prof. Mather condemns "narrow theologians who think their their business to preserve a tradition than than to tell truth."

    Stung by what they conceive to be a serious moral slump and an increasing atheistic attitude on the part of the younger generation since the war, a large number of preachers and reformers have launched the latest attack against science, and in particular against evolution, as its Most obnoxious principle, was the declaration of Prof. Mather.

If a plebiscite of all American voters could be taken today it would explain an overwhelming majority of adherents to the view that evolution is anti-Christian and modern science is destructive to belief in God, as a result of this campaign, he asserted.

"Theology may be just as scientific as geology," stated the professor. "Many scientists believe that real Christianity is just that sort of religion; that the theology of Jesus of Nazareth is just that sort of theology. Ancient Hebrew folklore is not the basis Of Christianity, no matter how much it may have contributed to the philosophy which made Christianity possible.

"Men of science are hastening to the development of a true religion when they aid in stripping off the husks of tradition that compass Christianity round about, and so help to reveal the kernel of truth which is its really fundamental basis. In that sense evolution and Religion are in harmony.

THERE is much in common between the declarations of Prof. Mather and those of Nikola Tesla, man of science.
