Excerpt from The Substance of Faith: Allied With Science, a Catechism for Parents and Teachers Every one who has to do with children at the present day, directly or indirectly, must in some form or another have felt the difficulty of instructing them in the details of religious faith, without leaving them open to the assaults of doubt hereafter, when they encounter the results of scientific inquiry. Sometimes the old truths and the new truths seem to conflict; and though every one must be aware that such internecine warfare between truths can be an appearance only, the reconciliation is not easily perceived: nor is the task simplified by the hostile attitude adopted towards each other by some of the upholders of orthodox Christianity. It is sometimes said to be impossible for a teacher to educate a class subject to compulsory attendance, in a spirit of wealth, peace, and Godliness, without infringing the legitimate demands of somebody; but the difficulty is caused chiefly by sectarian animosity, which may take a variety of forms.
