The second postulate of geology which every true lover of inductive methods must object to assuming as a preliminary to all investigation, is that our globe originated by the hot process, in any manner whatever, --whether according to the theory of Kant, La Place, Madler, Lockyer, or Faye, --for they are all alike in teaching that our globe was once fluid throughout. The pro and con of this, as a theory in itself, is altogether aside from our present subject, but we must note how this assumption of a certain method of origin for our earth "The heavens declare the glory of Cod; and the firmament showeth his handiwork"--BlBLE. forms an integral part of the whole structure of modern uniformitarian geology.
