In the 1870's a bishop who had charge of a small denominational college made his annual visit and stayed with the president. The bishop boasted a firm belief that everything that could-be invented had been invented. The college president thought otherwise. “In 50 years,” he said, “men will learn how to fly like birds.” The bishop, shocked, replied, “Flight is reserved for angels, and you have been guilty of blasphemy.”
