“supernatural medicine.” Doctors in the modern
age show a very different reaction. Far from
opposing the call to learn medicine in universities,
they encourage it, and follow the same practice
themselves.
The 7th century A.D. marked the beginning of a
period of historical change, made possible by the
Islamic revolution of the Prophet Muhammad.
Now, that process of change is reaching its
culmination. Preachers of true religion can call
upon a mass of supporting evidence from within
the range of human knowledge itself. Legal and
social modifications have enabled the free and
open preaching of religion. No Nimrod or
Pharaoh can rise to stamp out the call of truth
now. Massive inroads have been made into the
world of nature, and our knowledge of the way it
functions has increased considerably. This
knowledge provides solid intellectual support for
the teachings of true religion. The ground on
which people who violently opposed the call to
truth used to stand has vanished from beneath
their feet.
