The RELIGIO MEDICI is the apologia of a learned physician who was
proud to be a Christian and a member of the Church of England as
established by Elizabeth I. He recognized that under Henry VIII the
Church in England had been the catholic Church in schism, whereas
the Elizabethan Establishment was regarded as heretical by Rome.
Yet hew rote courteously about the Pope. Unlike many
seventeenth-century Protestants he never described St Peter's
successor as 'Balschazar', 'the Man of Sin, ' or 'the Whore of
Babylon.' He foresaw endless divisions in the Churches separated
from Rome and to-day there are atleast 140 separate Christian
churches. He found no contradiction between religion and science.
Religion reveals man's relation to God. Science is our partial
knowledge of the Laws of Nature whereby the Divine purpose is
carried out in creation. Being a modest man Sir Thomas Browne never
thought his writings would survive his own time. As it is they have
survived the centuries."
