Sir,-Mr. Hulbert claims that most of the greatest scientists are or have been tationalists. This is quite incorrect. On the contrary most of the greatest scientists have been deeply religious men. Among the great scientists who have been ardent Christians are the names of Sir Isaac Newton, Lord Kelvin, Sir Ambrose Fleming. Lord Kelvin says this: "T do not find the leading men of Science irreligious. If you think hard enough you are forced to believe in God. There is definitely creative power in Nature. True Science and scripture harmonise perfectly." I am sure your readers would prefer the facts that Lord Kelvin accepts to Mr. Hulbert’s opinions,
