COMMUNION WITH THE DEAD 147 utter defeat of one or the other. Sir Oliver himself has pointed out this antagonism. In his Man and the Universe (1908, p. 11) he observes : In disposition, also, religion and science are opposite. Science cultivates a vigorous, adult, intel- ligent, serpent-like wisdom, and active interference with the course of nature ; religion fosters a meek, receptive, child-hearted attitude of dove-like resig- nation to the Divine will.
And it is the child-hearted at...titude he adopts in Spiritualistic investigations. Mr. Edward Clodd says that an intimate friend of Sir Oliver described him as " longing to believe something. " And Mr. Clodd further quotes Sir Oliver as arguing that " in dealing with psychical phenomena a hazy, muzzy state of mind is better than a mind ' keenly awake ' and ' on the spot.
