When things are in order, if the cause of the orderliness cannot be deduced from the motion of the elements or from the composition of matter, it is quite possibly a cause possessing a mind.
Johannes Kepler
Just because an idea is true doesn't mean it can be proved. And just because an idea can be proved doesn't mean it's true.
Jonah Lehrer
Science is not about making predictions or performing experiments. Science is about explaining.
Bill Gaede
We must conduct research and then accept the results. If they don't stand up to experimentation, Buddha's own words must be rejected.
Dalai Lama XIV
Monotheism generally allows for no greys. Ideas are either true or false. Hence, although science develops out of the alchemy of the medieval Christian milieu (derived from Arabic alchemy, which was stimulated by the much earlier Chinese alchemy), science is not understood by the nonscientific monotheistic population. The general Western public mistakenly thinks science presents unalterable truth, as does their religion, rather than theories to be tested and continually discarded to be replaced by new hypotheses, which is the actual scientific method.
