In short, it is not that evolutionary naturalists have been less brazen than the scientific creationists in holding science hostage, but rather that they have been infinitely more effective in getting away with it. – Phillip E. Johnson
Science by itself has no moral dimension. But it does seek to establish truth. And upon this truth morality can be built. – William Masters
No doubt it is true that science cannot study God, but it hardly follows that God had to keep a safe distance from everything that scientists want to study. – Phillip E. Johnson
The assumption that nature is all there is, and that nature has been governed by the same rules at all times and places, makes it possible for natural science to be confident that it can explain such things as how life began. – Phillip E. Johnson
If modernist naturalism were true, there would be no objective truth outside of science. In that case right and wrong would be a matter of cultural preference, or political power, and the power already available to modernists ideologies would be overwhelming. – Phillip E. Johnson
The problem with allowing God a role in the history of life is not that science would cease, but rather that scientists would have to acknowledge the existence of something important which is outside the boundaries of natural science. – Phillip E. Johnson
Since coming to Congress, I have been advocating for increased resources for research in the physical sciences and for the Department of Energy Office of Science in particular. – Judy Biggert
But there is only one surefire method of proper pattern recognition, and that is science. – Michael Shermer
Anecdotal thinking comes naturally science requires training. – Michael Shermer
But the power of science lies in open publication, which, with the rise of the Internet, is no longer constrained by the price of paper. – Michael Shermer
Rocket science has been mythologized all out of proportion to its true difficulty. – John Carmack
There are relatively few science fiction or fantasy books with the main character being an old person. – Elizabeth Moon
I dislike literary jargon and never use it. Criticism has only one function and that is to help readers read and understand literature. It is not a science, it is an aid to art. – Anne Stevenson
One of my degrees was a science degree in biology. – Elizabeth Moon
We do a hard fantasy as well as hard science fiction, and I think I probably single-handedly recreated military science fiction. It was dead before I started working in it. – Jerry Pournelle
All the mathematical sciences are founded on relations between physical laws and laws of numbers, so that the aim of exact science is to reduce the problems of nature to the determination of quantities by operations with numbers. – James C. Maxwell
In my family, as in most middle-class Indian families I knew when I was growing up, science and mathematics were held in awe. – Aravind Adiga
If co-operation, is thus the lifeblood of science and technology, it is similarly vital to society as a whole. – Arthur Holly Compton
A third ideal that has made its way in the modern world is reliance on reason, especially reason disciplined and enriched by modern science. An eternal basis of human intercommunication is reason. – Emily Greene Balch
The recognition of the art that informs all pure science need not mean the abandonment for it of all present art, rather it will mean the completion of the transformation of art that has already begun. – John Desmond Bernal
