It is a Scientific book written many many years ago. If it was written today it would resemble the current way we figure out life which is Mathmatics.

No, it is not a scientific book. It is a philosophical book. To be a scientific book, it would have to start out with basic observed facts, and use them to prove something. It does not do that, it just says, "here is the conclusion, and it is true". Actually, it would have to do pretty much the same thing to be a philosophical book, so it is not one of those. It is a religious book, period. |
